An affiliate of Endurance Real Estate Group, LLC (“Endurance”) is pleased to announce the signing of three new leases and an expansion totaling 61,384 SF at Naaman’s Creek Business Center, a five (5) building flex portfolio totaling 190,729 SF in Upper Chichester Township, Delaware County (“Portfolio”).

With these leases, occupancy of the Portfolio is now 84% up from 30% at the time of acquisition in early 2015. With these leases, Endurance and the SSH Real Estate team of Brian Mears and Kevin Hagenberg are pleased to have stabilized the Portfolio with a diverse base of tenants.

The recent expansion was by an undisclosed healthcare company that previously leased 17,378 SF within the Park. This tenant has expanded their operations by 17,200 SF and now fully occupies 9 Creek Parkway on a long-term lease. This tenant was represented by Tactix Real Estate Advisors, LLC.

Zenith Freight Lines, LLC leased all 25,000 SF at 25 Creek Circle. Zenith Freight Lines was purchased in February 2015 by Bassett Furniture Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: BSET), and is now their primary logistical arm. In addition to its trucking services, Zenith operates distribution centers in at least eight states and manages home delivery services for Bassett Home Furnishings retail stores and other retailers in local markets throughout the country.

renewals. The attractive nature of this well-located, functional flex product is desirable to many different tenants serving the immediate Delaware County market” said Albert J. Corr, Senior Vice President of Asset Management at Endurance.
