MADISON, NJ—In the largest lease in New Jersey so far this year, global pharmaceutical giant Allergan is relocating its US headquarters to 5 Giralda Farms in Madison, NJ. Allergan leased the entire 431,495-square-foot property for a 13-year term.

Allergan, the company behind Botox, Juvéderm, Restasis and other leading pharmaceutical products, received more than $58 million in state incentives as part of the Grow New Jersey program, and worked closely with the mayor of Madison, Robert Conley, and Ray Codey, borough administrator, to allow for an above grade parking garage for the facility. The move to 5 Giralda Farms will consolidate three of Allergan's existing New Jersey office facilities in Parsippany, Bridgewater and Jersey City, bringing 1,800 employees together in one state-of-the-art headquarters.

Owned by a Lincoln Equites Partnership, 5 Giralda Farms is comprised of a modern corporate headquarters facility located on 50 acres at the Giralda Farms office campus in Madison, NJ. Formerly the Dodge Estate, Giralda Farms has served as a headquarters location for other global corporations, including Maersk, Quest Diagnostics, Prudential and Schering Plough.

Before a recent repositioning, the building was previously occupied by Pfizer as its US headquarters. In addition to the main building, the property offers an on-site daycare facility and carriage house, which can be used for additional meeting space and entertaining. The main building's exceptional amenities include six large conference facilities, a 345-seat dining room, and 15,000-square-foot fitness center with a full basketball court. Additional investment into the existing building will exceed $100 million. The property is minutes away from the Madison train station and the Morris Turnpike, offering direct access to Morristown and other critical areas of Northern New Jersey.
