MEDFORD, NJ—NAI Mertz is looking for a buyer or a tenant for a unique 4,000-square-foot former cranberry warehouse that has been used as a silent film theater, a recital hall, and now doubles as a combination office space and art studio.
Built in 1920, 2 Friends Avenue – nicknamed Culture Hall – underwent a complete renovation in 2007. With hardwood floors, restored tin ceilings, antique bar and decorative molding, the building's interior pays homage to its history. The 4,000-square-foot office space also features a reception area, conference room, large bullpen with cubicles, a kitchenette, private offices, and a workshop/art studio in the rear of the building.
Rebecca Ting, SIOR, vice president, and Julie Kronfeld, sales associate, are marketing the building on behalf of the owner, Eggz Shell, LLC.
“Mixing modern amenities and historic charm, 2 Friends Avenue is truly a unique property that we are excited to be marketing,” said Ting.
“It's a workspace that is both eclectic and inspiring. There's nothing else of its kind currently on the market—it's a true gem,” added Kronfeld.
Located just off Main Street in downtown Medford, 2 Friends Avenue is less than one mile from Route 70, and offers easy access to Route 73 and Route 206.
The building is available for sale or lease. The lease terms are flexible – space can be leased in part or whole, individual cubicles can be rented, and shared space is available as well.
