Jaime Weiss

E A neighborhood shopping center & professional office park:atimelessrealestatestory DISON, NJ — The real estate business, espe- cially when the market is heated up as it is now, is full of sexy “deal” stories – wheth- er they are abject disasters or incredible successes. But sometimes the best stories in real estate, espe- cially where the owners are concerned, are notable not for their extreme impacts, but for their consistent returns and natural position in the market. Colonial Village in Edison, NJ, a mixed-use neighborhood shopping center and profes- sional office park built in the late 1960s and continuously owned by a group led byMoon- achie, NJ-based Weiss Realty since 1982, is the very defini- tion not of the great real estate deal, but of the great real es- tate success. The six-acre site features ample parking for five core structures, comprised of 20,000 s/f of ground-level retail and 50,000 s/f of service- oriented office space. Nearly always 100% leased, the Weiss group prides itself on resisting opportunities to radically change the well-lo- cated center’s concept. Nearby the Garden State Parkway on State Highway 27, minutes to the Metro Park Train Station and close proximity to a major office park, regional Westfield Mall, and JFK Hospital and other nearby medical offices, Colonial Village is the rare high-performing site that has resisted being “upgraded.” “Colonial Village thrives be- cause it knows what it is: the town center for a town with no town center,” said Jaime Weiss , founder of Weiss Re- alty . “Because it is at a great intersection of a town domi- nated by large arteries rather than a classic New Jersey downtown village, we’ve been approached numerous times with strategies to evolve Co- lonial Village. “However, when you look at utilization and returns and leasing performance, it is per- fect as it is. The trend would be to replace 25 local busi- nesses with one big box store, but then you’ve killed the real estate for 20 years in exchange

populated by local business people with their own follow- ings who do not want or need to be in the mall. Our tenants thrive in a community-based setting where there is circu- lation in the center as well as the opportunity for their customers to accomplish mul- tiple tasks in one trip. The drycleaner, shoe repair, nail salon, Starbucks Coffee, res- taurants and other core users are mixed among the dentists, accountants, doctors, dress shop and lingerie boutique. The cross-awareness leads to cross-patronage and you find many customers intending to make several visits while other customers do so on im- pulse.” Set in the culturally-diverse and prosperous Edison area, Colonial Village has undergone minor facelifts over the years, updating its landscaping and facades to be more contem- porary and its signage to add recognition. But the biggest investment Jaime and his son Matt Weiss make is in rela- tionships with tenants. “No matter what the mar- ket is, our lease renewals never have dramatic increases, which is why our tenants can last so long here,” says Matthew Weiss. “We would rather them be successful and not have turnover than try to get the last dollar. When we do have an available spot, whether retail or office, we are looking for the right con- cept and the right operator to compliment what we already have. That is our formula – to strive for stability through the performance of the whole com- munity here.” And that is what has made Colonial Village a success for more than 40 years. n

for a predictable check. It is much more rewarding, fi- nancially and professionally, to experience what we have – which includes some turn- over but also some wonderful long-term tenancies that have become local institutions.” Weiss points to the recent renewals of two of Colonial Village’s hallmark restau- rants as examples of what makes the Center so unusual – and so appealing in its cur- rent form. “LouCas is one of the finest Italian restaurants in New Jersey, which is saying a lot,” said Weiss. Its counter- part, Meemah, is a wonderful Asian restaurant. Both have been operated by their owners since opening here – LouCas more than 20 years ago. They are local institutions and they will be here for 10 years under their current leases. “Some property owners are only looking for “credit” ten- ants that you can find in any mall. While those tenants may have strong balance sheets behind them, they don’t do much for the character of a place nor are they immune to failure. Colonial Village is

LIFTON, NJ — A well-attended broker reception this spring highlighted the transforma- tion of 1255 Broad St. in Clif- ton to a multi-tenant cam- pus. The 194,000 s/f former Roche facility is now home to the U.S. headquarters oper- ation of Comodo Group, Inc. and regional headquarters for URS Corporation; Cush- man & Wakefield , which co-hosted the event with property owner Normandy Real Estate Partners , is marketing the balance of the property for lease. According to Cushman & Wakefield’s David DeMat- teis and Marc Trevisan , who are based at the com- mercial real estate services firm’s East Rutherford, NJ office, 50 industry profes- sionals came out to tour the property. DeMatteis noted that the one-year anniver- sary of Roche vacating the building provided a perfect opportunity for the broker- age community to see 1255 Broad St. up and running as a multi-tenant environment for the first time. “The building is construct- ed with 20,000 s/f floor plates in pods that have their own lobbies and building sys- tems,” DeMatteis said. “This C

distinguishes the property from a flexibility standpoint. For example, a tenant with a 40,000 s/f requirement can have a private headquarters identity either horizontally or vertically, each with all the benefits of a campus environment. A tenant need- ing 20,000 s/f can have a full floor with great window lines that support today’s popular open office layout. Each floor also is easily divisible. This means we can accommodate tenants requiring less office space and still provide them with great visibility; a ten- ant needing 5,000 s/f could

have a double glass entry door off one of the main lob- bies.” Tenants at 1255 Broad St. all benefit from the class A property’s location at the intersection of the Garden State Parkway and Route 3; strong ownership; and on- site amenities including an executive garage, cafeteria, conference center, fitness facility with locker rooms and showers, and climate- controlled storage space.

Working with J.W. Pedersen & HJ Cannon on the 14,400 s/f project Hollister Construction Services breaks ground on Kearny Retail Center

ter’s reputation in this sector of the industry, along with their qualified staff, provides us with the utmost of confidence with their abilities to deliver a quality project. We look for- ward to completing this project with them and hope this builds the sound relationship we look for with our contractors. “ Hollister is working with the architectural firm of J.W. Pedersen and the structural engineers from HJ Cannon on the 14,400 s/f project which utilizes materials prefabri- cated offsite and trucked in for assembly in order to tighten the construction schedule. The pile supported building features EIFS panels complete with exterior finishes allowing Hollister to deliver a thermal

envelope in just three days. “This project requires pre- cise logistical planning as the majority of the large materi- als will be arriving one after another during a short window of time,” said project manager, Anthony Mantini . Hollister serves as construc- tion manager, design builder, and general contractor, for a broad spectrum of clients in New Jersey and New York and is widely recognized for the firm’s expertise in construc- tion projects for retail use. Recent Hollister projects include the renovation and addition to the 68,000 s/f Tottenville Square Shopping Center in Staten Island, NY, the renovation and ground up pad site construction of Celebrating over 20 years of Engineering Excelle ce

Raritan Shopping Center lo- cated in Sayreville, NJ, and the interior construction of a Joe’s Crab Shack restau- rant, located inside the new Courtyard Newark Downtown located in Newark, NJ. All of these projects required exten- sive logistical planning as the work is being completed while the centers remain open and full of customers. Hollister Construction Ser- vices is a full-service commer- cial real estate construction manager specializing in corpo- rate, educational, healthcare, industrial, retail, and residen- tial construction, with offices in Parsippany, NJ and New York, NY. Hollister works through its own independent philanthrop-
