“MedFirst is a key addition to the group of well-established occupants at Waterview Marketplace,” said Richard Birdoff, principal and president of RD Management. “We’re working closely with our partners at JMF Properties and RIPCO Real Estate to debut a next-level retail experience in Parsippany, and the clinic adds necessary diversity to our tenant mix. Residents looking for top-tier shopping, dining, beauty, and fitness will also have quick access to high quality, community-based medical care.”

Waterview Marketplace will be centrally located at the jug-handle intersection of Waterview Boulevard and Route 46. It is easily accessible from several major highways including Routes 202, 80, and 287.

The shopping center will be situated within a high-density and high-income trade area bordered by Mountain Lakes. It will also be surrounded by large office parks and complementary retail, with scenic greenery and lakes located nearby. Med First will join DSW, Whole Foods Market, Ulta Beauty, Orangetheory Fitness, Homesense, Shake Shack, and The Paper Store at the completed center.
