Engineering Firm Whitestone Relocates Within Warren

JLL completed a new transaction for Whitestone Associates Inc. at 30 Independence Boulevard in Warren, NJ, with building owner Griffin Capital Essential Asset REIT II Inc. The environmental and geotechnical engineering and consulting firm leased 11,871 square feet.

Whitestone Associates was represented by JLL’s Scott Lesh, Scott Stange and Daniel Loughlin. Their colleagues Timothy Greiner, Daniel Spero and Dennis McConnell represented Griffin Capital, which acquired 30 Independence Boulevard. in 2013.

“Whitestone is creating a workplace environment that will help promote collaboration and employee engagement,” said Lesh. “The environmental and geotechnical engineering and consulting firm found 30 Independence Boulevard to be a great fit because it can accommodate all of Whitestone’s specialized staff and operations under one roof.”

The engineering firm is relocating to the building from 35 Technology Dr. in Warren. The move is expected to take place by March 2020.
