restaurants and drug stores, and a short drive to public transportation, highways and various recreational activities. The NAI Hanson team of as- sociate vice president Darren Lizzack and vice president Hal Messer represented the Borough of Fair Lawn in the transaction. “Bergen County’s United Way was attracted to the op- portunity to acquire a fully entitled site that is located near an abundance of re- tail options, making it ideal

for senior housing,” Lizzack said. “The transaction comes at a perfect time for Bergen County’s baby boomers, who will enter the age of retire- ment over the next 15 to 20 years. Empty nesters simply do not have a need or desire to maintain their homes as they get older, and with fewer se- niors moving away from their family to be in Florida during retirement, we’re going to see a greater need for senior hous- ing that accommodates their needs here in New Jersey.” n
