PEEK Properties said Jan. 6 it has launched the lease-up of its newest Class A apartment building 475 William Street, in the Brick Church section of East Orange. The West Orange developer, owner and operator of multifamily properties has named Striker Apartment Leasing (Striker) of Clifton as the exclusive leasing agent.
Pre-leasing at the five-story midrise begins Jan. 7 followed by an open house on Jan. 15.
Located at the corner of William Street and Ashland Avenue, the 39-unit property is comprised of a mix of one-bedroom/one-bath and two-bedroom/two-bath layouts, ranging from 655-square-foot to 1,020-square-foot.
“The completion of construction and lease launch at 475 William Street marks two very important milestones for PEEK Properties and the City of East Orange,” said PEEK Managing Partner Emanuel Klein. “Our mutually held vision to advance the revitalization of the city’s Central Business District through exceptional design and construction is another step closer to being realized.”
“This property has transformed what was once a vacant building into a premier residential landmark at a time when demand for apartment-rental, urban-living options in the suburbs is on the upswing,” said PEEK Managing Partner Phillip Evanski.“Even during the construction phase, 475 William Street garnered tremendous prospective tenant interest and we are pleased to open our doors and help tenants get settled in their new home.”
