LEE & KLATSKIN CLOSES LEASE FOR 79,065 SF AT 75 AMOR AVENUE IN CARLSTADT, NEW JERSEY

CARLSTADT, NJ, SEPTEMBER 6, 2005 – Lee & Klatskin Associates announced it has signed a lease for 79,065 square feet of space on behalf of landlord AMB Property Corp. at 75 Amor Avenue in Carlstadt, New Jersey.  Atlantic Plywood Corporation, a plywood wholesaler, plans to utilize its new space as a warehouse and distribution center.  The Lee & Klatskin team included Vice President Chris Hile, and Principals and Executive Vice Presidents David Knee and Robert Kossar, who represented the landlord, AMB, in this transaction.  Representing Atlantic Plywood Corporation was Jim MacDonald of J.A. MacDonald, Inc.
 
“We are delighted to have closed this significant transaction on behalf of our long-time client, AMB,” said Kossar. “Atlantic Plywood Corporation’s requirement included the need for reactivating the rail line along the back of the property for its operations.  Our team was able to react quickly to the needs of Atlantic Plywood, which put AMB in a great position to make this deal.”
 
Located off Gotham Parkway, 75 Amor Avenue is a 101,000-square-foot building.  Amenities include 22-foot ceilings, and a single rail line siding on the opposite side.  Several upgrades have been made to the building since 2000 including window replacement, a new entry and awning, repainting and landscaping.  The one-story structure is central to the New Jersey Turnpike, Routes 3 and 17.
