LITTLE FALLS, NJ— The American Society of Mechanical Engineers has signed a long-term, 32,500-square-foot lease at Overlook Corporate Center, a class-A office building at 150 Clove Road in Little Falls, NJ. Colliers International arranged the lease for ASME.

The not-for-profit membership organization will relocate its New Jersey operations to occupy the entire sixth floor of the 415,000-square-foot property in the first half of 2015. ASME is currently at 22 Law Drive, Fairfield, NJ.

"This new location, which will house approximately 120 employees, meets the organization's growing space needs and creates space efficiencies to accommodate changes taking place within their industry," says Leon Manoff, vice chairman of Colliers International, who represented ASME in the transaction with assistance from executive managing director John Cunningham.

Manoff also says that Colliers has enjoyed a 12-year relationship with ASME and has represented them in all of their real estate endeavors throughout the country in New York, Washington D.C., Atlanta, and Houston.

“ASME is excited to be at Overlook Corporate Center,” says Thomas G. Loughlin, executive director of the Society.  “In the search for the new office space, we considered many factors ranging from on-site amenities to easy access for our commuting staff.  Overlook Corporate Center meets all of our current and future needs and will play a part in the Society's continuing evolution and growth.”

“Overlook Corporate Center is currently undergoing a multi-million dollar enhancement program to better every aspect of the tenant experience,” says Richard Mirliss, executive managing director at Colliers, who along with executive managing director Richard J. Madison, and director Anthony Rinaldi exclusively represents ownership, Theta Holding Company, LP. “The full-scale renovation, designed by architecture firm Gensler, has been a major draw for tenants like ASME. The tenant was also attracted to the property's amenities, diverse tenant mix, and close proximity to the Montclair State University train station.”

As part of the enhancement program, ownership is: upgrading all common areas of the building including the lobby, elevator cabs, bathrooms, corridors, and cafeteria; and developing a state of the art conference center, fully equipped fitness center, and a grab-and-go cafeteria with a coffee bar. 

Located on a hill near Routes 46 and 3, Overlook Corporate Center is minutes from the Garden State Parkway and I-80, and offers panoramic views of New York City and New Jersey. The facility includes covered parking, a full-service cafeteria, Wi-Fi access, 24-hour security, onsite ownership and management, and immediate access to mass transit.

Other tenants in the building include Morgan Stanley, Roche / Genentech, Cantel Medical, Telerx Healthcare Connexions, and Systra Consulting.
