SJP Properties, in collaboration with Scotto Properties, has signed Sweetgreen, the mission-driven restaurant brand serving healthy food at scale, for 2,646 square feet at M Station East, the first of the two high-performance office and retail buildings comprising M Station, the mixed-use development in downtown Morristown, New Jersey.
“Sweetgreen’s arrival at M Station validates our hypothesis that nationally recognized brands will be attracted to the significant increase in daytime foot traffic and activity in the area generated by exceptional companies like Deloitte and Sanofi,” said Alexander Erdos, senior vice president of leasing and marketing at SJP Properties. “This is a milestone for Morristown. Bringing high-caliber dining options and amenity retail to our projects is a key element of success. We think everyone at M Station as well as residents of Morristown will be thrilled to have Sweetgreen as a part of its rapidly evolving retail ecosystem.”
Jordan Cohn and Clare Golz of Ripco Real Estate facilitated the lease transaction on behalf of Sweetgreen, while Glenn Beyer of Newmark represented SJP Properties and Scotto Properties.
Designed to achieve LEED certification, M Station’s two buildings will be bridged by a 1,000-car parking structure that includes public parking for the development’s on-site retail and is being constructed in two phases. The completed first phase of the project, M Station East, rises six stories and totals 120,000 square feet. The property is fully leased to Deloitte, which relocated approximately1,495 employees to its new corporate headquarters in Q3 2022.
