Paterson, N.J. (November 8, 2021) – NAI James E. Hanson, the largest New Jersey-based full-service independent commercial real estate firm, announces it has negotiated a lease for 12,530 square feet of office space at 100 Hamilton Plaza in Paterson, N.J. NAI James E Hanson’s W. Joshua Levering, SIOR, represented the tenant, Northeast New Jersey Legal Services, in the transaction.
Standing at 180,000 square feet and a towering 14 stories, 100 Hamilton Plaza is a prominent multi-tenant office building boasting unmatched visibility in the heart of downtown Paterson. Widely regarded as one of the most iconic office buildings in downtown Paterson, 100 Hamilton Plaza features an abundance of amenities including panoramic city views, a cafeteria and a Planet Fitness gym center. This exemplary building also includes on-site ownership, first-class property management, and reception-and security check-ins for all employees and visitors. The location is within walking distance of the Paterson train station and the Broadway Bus terminal.
For nearly 50 years, Northeast New Jersey Legal Services has provided the highest-quality legal services available to those who are lower-income, senior and/or disabled residents in the local community. As the firm sought to relocate to a more modern and accessible building, they were able to lease the entire second floor with a plan designed and built to the exact needs of its front office and administrative operations.
“This deal not only exemplifies the importance of upgrading to quality when the opportunity presents itself but showcases how a relocation change, even if simply across town, can fundamentally enhance a company’s ability to service and grow its client base. Understanding the firm’s importance to the community, we identified a property best suited to serve both the firm and their clients,” said Levering. “We have a long history with Northeast New Jersey Legal Services and know that a location like 100 Hamilton has a direct impact on its employees and stakeholders. It was our top priority to connect this client with the opportunity to increase the accessibility of their services to the Paterson community.”
