We sought to capitalize on a tremendous opportunity to continue to reposition and lease-up the building, and with the continu- ous growth taking place in the Livingston market, we are certain the property’s future potential is something we can help bring to fruition.” “In 2008, Eastman embarked on a multimillion dollar capital improvement campaign to suc- cessfully renovate and reposi- tion the property to meet the evolving needs of corporate tenants and a growing millen- nial workforce,” said Peter Schofel , managing partner with Eastman Companies. Noting that the building is approaching 100% occupancy, Schofel added, “We are looking forward to working with our new partners to build on this in- vestment and further enhance the exceptional environment we have created for current and prospective tenants.” n
