Schwartz said, “Since acquiring NWEP (f/k/a the Taconic Corporate Park) a little over two years ago, we have invested millions of dollars in capital improvements to the building’s systems and amenities as well as the common areas. Combined with GHP’s innovative and proprietary marketing methods and tools, we have increased occupancy at NWEP from 40% when we acquired the property to 85% with high credit tenants.”  

140 Huguenot St. is a 64,000 s/f, three story office building. GHP acquired the building in March 2016, when it was 65% occupied, and has since invested over $1 million in capital improvements to the building’s common areas, façade, onsite parking garage, as well as converting the existing HVAC systems to energy efficient rated systems.  The building is now 92% leased.  

Greenspan said, “We are pleased with the success of our leasing and marketing program for the building. The recent deals are worth over $7 million. In addition to our capital investment and our high quality tenant service, 140 Huguenot Street’s location and its proximity to the New Rochelle CBD, the New Rochelle Intermodal Transportation Center and I-95 at Exit 16, make it an attractive location to tenants for its accessibility for their employees and clients.”  

Greenspan said, “We continue to utilize our opportunistic, value-add acquisition formula, purchasing undervalued, income producing assets in great locations that we are familiar with, investing in capital improvements and successfully leasing vacant space and renewing existing tenants.”

GHP Office Realty was formed in 1999, and is headed by its principal owners Andrew Greenspan and James J. Houlihan. The company is a leader in the commercial real estate market in the New York metropolitan area specializing in the acquisition/sales, leasing and management of office, retail, flex and industrial properties in the suburban markets of the tri-state area.
