Success Stories

Empire Coach
Cutting luxury cars in half and reconstructing them as stretch limos requires lots of space. Empire Coach has 80,000 square feet in a F. Greek Development facility in East Brunswick, NJ. Company President Mike Misseri says he runs the “most sophisticated limo operation the country, probably the world.” Two production lines produce standard stretch Lincolns and exotics — stretch Rolls Royces, Porsches, Lexuses and Hummers. Basic amenities are flat screen TVs, wet bars, computer access and navigation systems. Models built for Arab sultans and African heads of state included armor and run-flat tires.

ING Clarion Partners
Lion Industrial Trust
Texas-based ING Clarion Partners Lion Industrial Trust owns more than 2.5 million square feet of industrial real estate in New Jersey, managed by F. Greek Development. Among the most challenging projects executed on behalf of ING Clarion was the redevelopment, construction and tenant fit-up of a sprawling, vacant, 497,000-square-foot warehouse at 888 Doremus Avenue in Port Newark. Says ING Clarion Senior VP David T. Confer, “F. Greek Development., is a valued partner who knows how to successfully navigate a challenging political environment and how to complete the job in a timely manner. They have been instrumental in our growth.”

GILBERT COMPANY
Location, size and abundant loading dock doors attracted the Gilbert Company to the new F. Greek Development, distribution building at 1000 Industrial Avenue in Keasbey, New Jersey. California-based Gilbert needed an East Coast hub for distribution, fulfillment and merchandise-consolidation services it provides to the nation’s largest department store chains. Within one mile of the New Jersey Turnpike, Garden State Parkway, U.S. 1 and Interstate 287, the building is also less than 20 miles from Port Elizabeth and Newark Liberty Airport and 30 miles from Manhattan. The Gilbert Company occupies 270,500 of the building’s 700,000 sq. ft. and uses 87 of its 173 loading dock doors. “A big selling point was the ratio of one door per 3,000 square feet of space,” said Kai Timmerman, COO and CIO of the Gilbert Company. Gilbert hauls and handles 30 million pounds of product weekly.

SOFTWARE HOUSE INTERNATIONAL
A two-billion dollar computer business solutions provider, Software House International moved into a 140,000-square-foot build-to-suit F Greek Development, facility in Somerset, New Jersey, in April 2006. “We needed flexibility, and Frank constructed the building around our needs,” says Steve Alt, SHI Facilities Manager.. That meant a robust 1,600-AMP electrical service, 15 loading dock doors and two drive-in ramps. Three quarters of the building is racked for warehousing, with the rest serving as office and space for the configuration of customer computers. SHI can now configure 2,500 computers a day—double its previous capacity—for a broad client base, including AT&T, Verizon, Bank of America and Qwest.
