NEWARK, NJ—Newark Regional Business Partnership relocated its headquarters to The Berger Organization's Military Park Building this summer, leasing 10,000 square feet and bringing four additional local non-profit groups to its space on the building's 18^th and 19^th floors. The organization's commitment represents the latest in a series of new leases and renewals at the 250,000-square-foot, 89-year-old property in recent months.

“There is no better place to connect with our members and Newark's stakeholders than our new offices at the Military Park Building,” says Chip Hallock, NRBP president and CEO. “We have combined our accessible, central downtown location in one of Newark's historic office buildings with modern conveniences and communications infrastructure. It is a venue that truly works for our organization.” Jones Lang LaSalle represented NRBP in negotiating its long-term lease.

The non-profit organizations sharing NRBP's space include:

• Greater Newark Enterprises Corporation, which provides loans and technical assistance to small business,
• The Nicholson Foundation, which works to address the complex needs of vulnerable populations in New Jersey's urban areas,
• Newark Alliance, which works to improve economic conditions and public education in the city, and
• ReServe, which matches professionals age 55+ with organizations that need their expertise.

“We look forward to a long and beneficial relationship with NRBP and the groups sharing its space,” says Miles Berger, chairman and chief executive officer of The Berger Organization. “These organizations all are making commendable contributions to Newark, and we are pleased to provide them with flexible, convenient accommodations that can foster their continued progress in the heart of the city they are serving.”
