re increased energy costs eating up your operating budget? Maybe your building needs to go on a diet. Two easy steps to identify and implement real savings in a three to six month timeframe are an energy audit and retrocommissioning. Energy Audit An energy audit will review your current energy bills and provide an evaluation of building energy usage over the last two years. Comparing your building to similar buildings can quickly highlight savings potential. The audit includes identification of immediate and short term energy conservation measures. Immediate savings can often be found in review of your building control system. Is equipment running excessively during unoccupied times? Maybe your buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ventilation rates are higher than necessary, wasting fan energy and increasing heating and cooling demands.

Retro-commissioning Building commissioning has been adopted by the construction industry over the last ten years as a key step in providing safe and efficient operation of building systems: heating, ventilation, air conditioning, lighting, and plumbing. There is a good chance that your building was never commissioned. If so, deficiencies in place since original construction may increase your building operating costs every day. One example is shown in the figure at right. Improper 4:55 operation of one 9/27/10 PM Page 1

The Current Commercial Mortgage Market

uring the last 60 days, a tremendous number of things occurred that are and will affect the commercial mortgage market for some time: • S & P, a major contributor to the MBS market Bruce J. Coin meltdown that impacted world economies and caused the U.S to incur mega amounts of additional debt, elected to down grade the U.S. from AAA to AA+

sending economic shockwaves around the world. • The Federal Reserve, in an unprecedented move, announced that it will keep short term interest rates near zero through 2013. • Residential mortgage rates fell to their lowest levels in over 50 years. • The benchmark U.S. Treasury rate declined steadily from 3.18 percent on July 1st to 2.19 percent on August 26th. On February 8th it was 3.75 percent. • As predicted in this column, a new rating agency, Morningstar, via its May 2010 acquisi-

tion of Realpoint, has emerged to rate MBS. • S & P, after providing preliminary rating opinions to Goldman Sachs and Citigroup on a new $ 1.5 billion pool of CMBS (GC4) abruptly withdrew its ratings in the midnight hour citing inconsistencies in its rating criteria. • To calm the markets about the potential for another recession, Fed Chairman Bernanke indicated that the demand for autos and aircraft drove long lasting manufactured goods higher in July offsetting a decline in orders for most other

manufactured goods. • MBS values plunged, their rate spreads increased and delinquencies of existing CMBS continued to increase. • Post S & P’s downgrade of the U.S.’s credit, the Justice Department (in a move that in this writer’s opinion should have occurred early in 2008) is now investigating the MBS ratings issued by S & P that contributed to the recession. • Economic conditions in Greece, Spain, France and other countries continue to deteriorate reducing their ability to buy exported goods from the U.S.

which will further slow growth of the U.S. economy. • The Washington regulators have yet to define a QRM (Qualified Residential Mortgage) as provided for in the Dodd Frank Act. They may never define a Qualified Commercial Mortgage. S & P’s GC4 faux pas will cost them financially and lose them an abundant amount of the new MBS ratings business that will now go to Moody, Fitch and Morningstar. The combination of weak economic conditions, rising spreads and the S & P actions has reduced investor’s appetites for new CMBS. Accordingly, while banks that accumulated new loans over the summer will try bringing them to market in new pools, the volume predictions continued on page 6A

By Ed Ritter, Energy Audits & . . . continued from page 2A recovery wheels had not been properly controlled since the building construction was completed – 10 years ago. The Owner had paid over $30,000 extra for these energy savings devices. Due to improper control programming, the wheels ran for only a few hours each year. Proper wheel operation in this 100,000 square foot building would have saved over $50,000 per year. Multiply that by 10 years… How do I get started? Getting started is easy. Collect your energy bills and use the Energy Star rating system to quickly understand how your building performs in comparison to its neighbors. The rating system will provide you a good idea where you stand. It is a 1 – 100 scale with 50 being average energy efficiency. A score of 75 or better may qualify your building as an Energy Star property – more efficient than 75 % of similar buildings. See http://www.energystar.gov/ for more details. Energy Star is a free program administered by the US Department of Energy. When was the last time you got anything free from the Federal government? Get started today. You can take the first step yourself and get a quick idea where you stand and how much you may be able to save. Ed Ritter is the controls & commissioning manager at Barton Associates, Inc. n

Goldman and Citi announced that they intend to bring that $1.5 billion GC4 pool back to market after Labor Day with ratings from Moodys and Morningstar. Hopefully, by the time you read this the pool will have been sold. Multi-family lending and acquisition opportunities continue to be preferred. With 3 months remaining in its fiscal year, the FHA announced that it has endorsed $10.5 billion in multi-family loans so far, a new record. Further support comes from the Mortgage Bankers Association who announced that: “Second Quarter 2011 commercial and multifamily loan originations rose by 107% from a year ago”. Moody’s also reported that: “U.S Commercial real estate prices increased nearly 1 percent in June as repeat sales volume jumped to its highest, non-year end level since 2007. Ten year fixed interest rates are now readily available at 5% or less for many property types with even lower rates available for multi-family. I think we can also look for upward pressure on the LTV ratios lenders apply to underwriting apartments with many lenders, especially conduits and perhaps the agencies, again entertaining 80 percent ratios as opposed to their recent 70 and 75% limitations. Apartment loan DSCRs should also get squeezed down to about 1.20, but not below. If your re-fi can meet the LTV and DSCR requirements, good, long term, low rate financing appears to be available for some time to come. Bruce J. Coin is director of Bruce Coin Consulting, Inc. n

GREEN BUILDINGS Vegetated walls, Green Screens, & urban garden redevelopment

Environmental Design Group practices sustainable design with a signature approach

DG (Environmental Design Group) Architects, LLC has been practicing sustainable design since 1972 and has an extensive portfolio of completed projects that have applied the principals of good environmental design including active and passive solar, energy efficient building envelopes and use of sustainable materials. In recent years, vegetated walls have become a signature of EDGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s approach to sustainable design. Integrating planters with railings and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Green Screensâ&#x20AC;? on south facing facades help to break up the visual as well as thermal

This entailed transforming the parking lot in the center of the site to a garden and entry court yard, the incorporation of a â&#x20AC;&#x153;green screenâ&#x20AC;? into the front facade with trellises supporting deciduous vines and a green â&#x20AC;&#x153;livingâ&#x20AC;? roof with plantings that provide rainwater runoff control and thermal protection. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;green screenâ&#x20AC;? was applied over the existing facade to both transform the look of the building and to provide a solar screen in the summer months.

GREEN BUILDINGS Headquarters Plaza in Morristown, NJ

Fisher Dev., Olnick Org.’s bldg. receives Energy Star Cert.

ORRISTOWN, NJ – Headquarters Plaza, the class A commercial buildings in downtown Morristown with 700,000+ s/f of office space, recently received ENERGY STAR certification from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for the East Tower of its facility. The environmentally-significant designation means the East Tower meets strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the EPA and ranks among the top 25 percent of buildings in its category for energy conservation. “We are proud to have our facility recognized as one of the most environmentally-friendly, energy efficient office buildings in the state,” said Brian Fisher, a principal at Fisher Development Associates, which developed Headquarters Plaza along with partner the Olnick Organization. “Pursuing this certification reflects our ongoing commitment to conserving resources and reducing our environmental impact.” Headquarters Plaza is the first building in Morristown

Headquarters Plaza to receive ENERGY STAR in energy conservation of office certification, according to the buildings nationwide. EPA.

A discussion on how and why to hire a LEED consultant continued from page 10A the broad goal of sustainability or some elevated level of LEED your target? The answers to these questions are likely to point you to a consultant with a particular area of expertise. Does the consultant have experience in the management of all of the documentation for LEED certification? Many people, consultants included, have yet to certify their first LEED project. Others have limited personal experience, i.e. they have worked on LEED-certified projects in their previous offices. Find out what specific experience the person assigned to your project has had. How many projects have they worked on? How many projects are certified? What was their role? Remember, always, that the most sustainable and most cost-effective solutions are those that are integrated throughout the project. A simple example of this is the exploitation of day lighting at the USGBC Headquarters building in Washington, DC. In this case, the carpet at the perimeter of the offices (along the window wall) was changed to a lighter color in order to more effectively reflect daylight into the building. This simple no-cost change, reduces the amount and hours

of artificial light required. The operational cost benefit will continue for the life of the project. Regardless of the consultant’s area of expertise, you want a consultant that can see the big picture and help you make decisions that save you money as well as protect the environment. What services do you need? A consultant can limit their services to document management, in which case the architect, engineer and contractor provide the documentation which the consultant reviews, assembles and submits to GBCI. The consultant can provide what I refer to as “enhanced documentation services” from providing drawing notes to compiling material data for construction credits. This can reduce the effort on the part of the architect and contractor. Be sure to coordinate the scope of the LEED services with your team so that you are not paying multiple team members to do the same job! Are you doing the documentation yourself? Just want a little back-up? A LEED Consultant can provide services on an hourly basis acting as technical support to you or your team. In this case, be sure to hire someonewho knows more than you do and has the

relevant experience to be able to provide you with the answers you are unable to obtain yourself. Why else should I hire a Consultant? Another reason to consider using a LEED consultant is that this is an easy “carveout” – That is to say that it is work easily assigned to a third party. Whether the architect, contractor or developer, sometimes you may not have the capacity to do everything that needs to be done on a project to meet a schedule. LEED document management is a clearly identifiable scope of work. It does not require a great deal of coordination or supervision on your part. If fact, a good LEED consultant should ease the effort on the part of the project manager. Where minority or women business participation is required, a consultant can help meet these goals. The next version of LEED (LEED 2012) is currently available for public comment. This is the second public comment period so it is getting close to its final version. Your LEED consultant should be up to date on the changes and should be able to help you anticipate how to approach your future projects. ■ Peter Doo is partner at Doo Consulting LLC. ■

Tour & talk, Connecting people for business

EDANJ holds program on September 14th LIVINGSTON, NJ — The Economic Development Association of New Jersey (EDANJ) is offering a program to economic development professionals and municipal and business leaders in the fields of commercial real estate, finance and other diverse business community members. Be briefed on the real facts about the current energy mix in the U.S. and internationally. The program looks at energy costs in the U.S. compared with the rest of the world and presents PSEG’s approach to balancing future energy demands while minimizing the environmental impacts of climate change. The presentation includes information on nuclear energy and addresses topics like used fuel management, industry performance, safety and security, and new nuclear development. Also included is an update on Japan’s Fukushima Daiichi nuclear

facility and the impact on the U.S. nuclear industry. The program in support of its mission, Connecting People for Business, will take place on Wednesday, September 14, 2011 from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM (includes lunch). According to Frank Lucchesi, EDANJ president, ”following the briefing at the Energy & Environmental Resource Center (EERC), attendees will take a driving tour of the perimeter of PSEG’s Salem & Hope Creek Nuclear Generating Stations. Stops include the Hope Creek cooling tower, security range, used fuel storage pad and site of a potential new nuclear plant.” This is a rare opportunity with limited registration and pre-registration is required. Cost for the program including lunch is $35 per person (members) and $45 per person (non-members). More information and easy online. ■

Walters Group applies technology to operate security systems & solar farm STAFFORD TOWNSHIP, NJ — Walters Group has applied machine-to-machine (M2M) technology to modernize the management of its operations. The firm has been recognized as an M2M success story and Ed Walters, Jr. was invited by Verizon Wireless to tout the benefits of wireless M2M connectivity services at an employee-training seminar. M2M is a technology, which allows electronic devices to communicate with each other via IP-based networks. Those devices can include video surveillance and security solutions, remote sensors, utility meters, appliances and routers. “The Walters Group is a realworld example of a company using wireless technology – in this instance a machine-tomachine application enabled by Verizon Wireless’ reliable network – to dramatically improve efficiencies and minimize costs,” said Joe Chuisano, regional director of business sales for Verizon Wireless’ Philadelphia region. “We’ve only just begun to scratch the surface in terms of the capabilities that can be leveraged utilizing our technology and the Walters Group’s innovative focus on creating a wirelessly connected business environment that enables remote monitoring of their se-

curity systems and solar power operations.” Walters Group is currently building one of the state’s largest solar projects at Stafford Park by constructing a 6.5-megawatt solar farm. The firm plans to install 27,066 solar panels to be set in 1,041 arrays, or stands, sitting atop 35 acres, part of the company’s 350-acre business park that already includes commercial, residential and office space. When the solar park is completed in 2014, power usage data will be collected and sent to a receiving device. As a result, arrays will be managed and controlled remotely. Another use for M2M technology lies in security. By applying M2M technology, Walters has the ability to transmit data over a high-speed link from CCTV cameras via a wireless network. “Rather than have 24-hour streaming video that can be cumbersome to watch and track, you can have it triggered so that every time something moves in front of the camera, a report is generated. It’s one machine talking to another machine and producing data that can be analyzed,” added Walters. Consequently, security can be heightened at Walters’ retail and multi-family sites. In a model home, for example, assets are protected, and in a multi-family unit, entrances are secured. An application on a smart phone device could allow a person to wave their phone in front of a door, creating a keyless entry.” ■

GREEN BUILDINGS Cumberland Mall anchor store to generate over 900 kWh

Danza Energy Group begins construction on solar energy array installation on roof

INELAND, NJ — Construction began recently on a $4 million, 962 kilowatt solar array that will span the roof of one of the nation’s last familyowned department stores, an official with Danza Energy Group said today. “This will be a great moneysaver for Boscov’s at Cumberland Mall,” said A.J. Danza, CEO of The Danza Group. “Boscov’s is thinking forward, and this installation is a testament to the management of the company.” Construction on the array began in May, Danza said, by IPP Solar of New York. The

project is slated to finish in mid-July. “In all,” Danza said, “the solar array will cover about 100,000 s/f on the roof of the Boscov’s building.” Danza said the system weighs about six pounds per square foot, and that the entire array weighs about 600,000 pounds. But there’s a lot of energy packed into that square footage, said Paul Jeun, cofounder of IPP solar. “The average home uses about 5 kilowatts of energy per year,” he said. “This array is rated at more than 900 kilowatts

– or enough to power about 190 homes for a year.” Robert Roman, mayor of Vineland, said that his city is leading the way with solar projects in the state. “We’re the only municipality in New Jersey that generates electricity,” the mayor said. “And Vineland is a huge supporter of solar power. We’re a gogreen city.” Romano said the solar array has had a positive impact on Vineland. “It’s great for the city, and it’s great for Boscov’s,” he said. “And we were happy to help it get approved for the city.”■

Jarmel Kizel provides LED lighting energy solutions LIVINGSTON, NJ — Jarmel Kizel Architects and Engineers, Inc. is currently working on an energy solutions project on behalf of NJ’s Department of Property Management and Construction (DPMC) and Liberty State Park in Jersey City. After careful review of the energy consumption at Liberty State Park, the DPMC began looking for an energy solution that was both cost effective and environmentally responsible. A solution for the approximately 1,200-acre open space park has been made to replace the existing lighting in over 150 light poles with new LED lighting. These light poles line the walkways along the New York harbor and are a source of light for the park’s visitors. In addition, approximately 50 light poles in the picnic areas will be upgraded with newer poles that are similar to the existing poles found along the harbor. Jarmel Kizel also will be adding lighting controls to the new poles to further increase energy savings. Jarmel Kizel’s Energy Solutions team is providing architectural, as well as structural, civil and electrical engineering design services for this project. The field survey is complete and the project has moved into the design and construction drawings phase. The project is expected to be completed later this year. ■

The Tri-State operation of Colliers International continues to expand its industrial brokerage and investment sales team in New Jersey. This transaction is testimony to the firm’s strategic expansion and its increasing market share. The seller in the transaction

was represented by Greg Sholom of Team Resource, Inc. In Central New Jersey news, the following four consecutive quarters of increasing availabilities during 2010, the Central New Jersey office market is beginning to strengthen, with consecutive quarters of positive absorption to begin 2011. Small and mid-sized leases have lowered the overall availability rate for 2Q11 to 20.7 percent, its lowest level since 4Q09, compared to 21.4 percent during 1Q11 and 21.1 percent during the same quarter in 2010. Subsequently, asking rents in Central New Jersey increased for the second consecutive quarter, averaging $22.31 per square foot gross, plus tenant electric for 2Q11, compared to $22.02 the previous quarter and $21.80 a year ago, the first year-to-year increase since 4Q08. Submarkets performing well include the Route 78 Corridor and the Princeton submarkets. While the overall availability rate for the Central New Jersey region has generally steadied above 20 percent since 3Q09, the Route 78 Corridor has managed to sustain a rate well below that level and, as of 2Q11,

only 14.2 percent of offi ce space remains available. Technology, healthcare and pharmaceutical companies have helped stabilize this submarket in the past 12 months. Pharmaceutical and life science companies have also been active in the Princeton market, and after peaking at 21.3 percent during 4Q10, two consecutive quarters of positive net absorption have dropped the overall availability rate to 18.9 percent. Princeton also boasts some of the highest asking rents in Central New Jersey, along with the North EdisonWoodbridge submarket. For 2Q11, much of the activity ranged from 5,000- 35,000 square feet, while 15 of the top 25 leases occurred in Middlesex and Somerset Counties. The largest lease during the quarter was signed in Middlesex County by Wakefern Foods, who took 50,000 square feet at 105 Fieldcrest Avenue in Edison. Other leases greater than 35,000 square feet include Celgene in Berkeley Heights, First Solar Electric in Bridgewater and McKinsey & Company, who agreed to lease 35,000 square feet in a new building currently under construction in Summit. ■

NEW JERSEY AMC Fire Protection

How Fire Sprinkler Systems Operate ater represents the ideal extinguishing agent for most fires. Fire sprinklers utilize water by direct application onto flames and heat. This action cools the combustion process and prevents ignition of adjacent combustibles. Sprinkler systems are a series of water pipes that are supplied by a reliable water supply. At selected intervals along these pipes are independent, heat-activated valves known as sprinkler heads. It is the sprinkler head that is responsible for water distribution onto the fire. Most sprinkler systems also include an alarm to alert occupants when a fire occurs. During the incipient fire stage, heat output us relatively low an unable to cause sprinkler operation. As the fire intensity increase, however, the sprinklerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sensing elements become exposed to elevated temperatures and they begin to deform. Assuming temperatures remain high, as they would during an increasing fire, the element will fatigue after an approximate 30 second to 4 minute

period. This will release the sprinkler â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seals allowing water to discharge onto the fire. In most situations, less than 2 sprinklers are needed to suppress the fire. In fast growing fore scenarios such as a flammable liquid spill, up to 12 sprinklers may be required for control. Additional actions may occur when sprinkler activation happens. These include initiation of building and/or fire department alarms, operation of supplemental water supply systems, shutdown of selected electrical and mechanical equipment closing of fire doors and dampers, and suspension of processes. Fire Sprinkler Head Components The sprinkler is the spray nozzle that distributed water over a defined fire hazard area. Each sprinkler operates by actuation of its own temperature linkage. The typical sprinkler consists of a frame, thermal operated linkage, cap, orifice, and deflector. Styles of each component may vary but the basic principles of each remain the same. â&#x20AC;˘ Frame â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The frame provides the main structural

component that holds the sprinkler together. The waster supply pipe connects to the sprinkler at the base of the frame. The frame holds the continued on page 16B

Showing signs of improvement

Cassidy Turley reports on New Jersey office market

EANECK, NJ — The office market in New Jersey has shown slight improvement and there are encouraging signs for the future, but steady job growth will be the key to achieving David Simon sustainable stabilization and momentum in the sector, according to recently released Office Market Snapshots for the Northern and Central New Jersey markets from Cassidy Turley, a leading commercial real estate services provider in the U.S. The Northern New Jersey office market ended the second quarter of 2011 with a vacancy rate of 14.1%, increasing from 13.9% at the end of the first quarter. The Hudson Waterfront submarket maintains the lowest vacancy rate at 5.9% and reported approximately 280,000 s/f of positive absorption in the second quarter. The Central New Jersey office market ended the second quarter of 2011 with a vacancy rate of 16.5%, slightly declining from 16.6% in the first quarter. It has hovered between 16.5% and 16.6% for the past five quarters. Overall, renewals and/or renewal extensions are prevalent in this market and represent a high%age of leasing activity. In Northern New Jersey, the average asking rental rate fell slightly from $25.58 psf in the first quarter to $24.95 psf in the second quarter. With limited deliveries and projects under construction, asking rates should continue to level off for the remainder of 2011, a positive sign that the market has stabilized. The average asking rental rate in Central New Jersey declined to $23.46 psf in the second quarter of 2011, from $23.59 in the first quarter. The most notable transaction in the quarter was the portfolio sale of 70 and 90 Hudson Street in Jersey City, NJ. Hartz Mountain Industries sold the 409,272square-foot buildings to CB Richard Ellis Investors for approximately $310 million or $375 psf. Key lease transactions in

the second quarter include Evonik Degussa Corporation signing on for 150,500 s/f at 299 Jefferson Road in the Parsippany submarket and QTS renewing for 128,000 s/f at 95 Christopher Columbus Drive along the Hudson Waterfront. “We are optimistic, but there are still challenges ahead related to the unemployment rate in New Jersey,” said David Simon, SIOR, managing principal, New Jersey for Cassidy Turley. “Significant improvement will not be reflected until consistent job growth is created. Despite

volatility in the economy, activity has been increasing and many tenants are willing to commit to longer lease terms, which is positive.” In the second quarter, the New Jersey preliminary unemployment rate was recorded at 9.4%, increasing from 9.3% at the end of the first quarter. Industries with significant job gains include healthcare and social assistance, professional and business services, and finance. However, there were significant job losses in manufacturing, trade, transportation and utilities, and construction. ■

EDA CEO Caren Franzini. “As a revolving loan program, the EE RLF was designed to be a sustainable funding source that will support these important projects now and well into the future.” The supplemental financing must be used for whole-building energy efficiency improvements, and projects must meet the requirements defined under Pay for Performance. Specifically, existing buildings must have generated a peak demand over 100 kW for any of the preceding 12 months. For new construction, buildings must have at least 50,000 s/f or more of planned conditioned space. Applicants must have an energy reduction plan that defines a comprehensive package of measures capable of reducing energy consumption by 15 percent or more or achieving energy costs 15 percent below the current energy code. Existing buildings undergoing substantial renovations may also be eligible. Hospitals, public colleges and universities, 501 (c) (3) organizations and local governmental entities are exempt from the 100 kW and 50,000 s/f requirements. “The new Revolving Loan Fund provides a critical financing source for the installation of energy efficiency measures,” said BPU president Lee Solomon. “Providing business owners and local government officials with new opportunities to reduce their energy use helps lower the cost of doing business in NJ, improving our economy and our environment.” The EE RLF is a companion to BPU’s Pay for Performance program, which provides grant incentives to large commercial and industrial customers who build or upgrade their facilities by making comprehensive investments in energy efficiency. There is a minimum 1.1:1 debt service coverage ratio and personal guarantees are required for any person or entity with 10 percent or more ownership in a project. Applicants will be required to provide evidence of a source of funds needed to complete a project and BPU will take a lien on equipment to be financed, business assets, and/or collateral. Businesses should also create or maintain jobs in NJ. Financing under the program cannot exceed 100 percent of total eligible project costs from all public State funding sources. ■

Acquired by Gaia from Hartz Mountain Industries

Cushman & Wakefield arranges $78 million sale of Jersey City’s 2 Journal Square Plaza

ERSEY CITY, NJ — Cushman & Wakefield, Inc.’s Metropolitan Area Capital Markets Group (CMG) has arranged the sale of 2 Journal Square Plaza, a landmark nine-story, 325,000 s/f class A office building, representing seller Hartz Mountain Industries. The buyer in the $78 million transaction was Gaia Real Estate Investments in partnership with Phoenix Insurance and Menora Mivtachim Insurance, both based in Israel. Located adjacent to the city’s Journal Square Station, 2 Journal Square was completed by Hartz in 1987 and has been fully leased ever since to Broadridge Financial Solutions (a spinoff from ADP in 2007). “The fact that it has been leased on a long-term basis to a premier financial services company and has close proximity to Wall Street, 2 Journal Square drew a great deal of interest from potential investors,” said David Bernhaut of Cushman & Wakefield’s CMG, who

Mountain Industries, Cushman and Wakefield has arranged two industrial leases with Samsung and Walong with a combined total of more than 360,000s/f, with both transactions retaining NJ-based operations. Andrew Stypa and Daniel Badenhausen of Cushman & Wakefield represented the tenants in both leases, and Hartz was represented in-house by Gus Milano and Ernest Cristoff. “The key in both transactions was working closely with Hartz to make them happen,” said Stypa. “We continue to cultivate relationships throughout the marketplace.” In one transaction, the Fashion & Textile Division of Samsung C&T America leased 185,000 square feet at Hartz’s 35 Henry Street in Secaucus, N.J. Situated off Route 3 and at Exit 15X of the New Jersey Turnpike, the property is within the Harmon Cove Industrial Park, near Manhattan, Newark Liberty International Airport and other key routes.

“Samsung initially wanted to move the operation to California,” says Stypa. “After we had identified several locations there, the company decided to remain and expand within New Jersey. Hartz’s building at 35 Henry Street ultimately was the ideal location for them.” “We stayed in New Jersey for a variety of business reasons, including the fact that we didn’t want to lose sales, especially with the back-toschool season coming up,” said Ali Abid, senior manager of office administration and logistics for Samsung. “Also, we have been working with Cushman & Wakefield for a long time and trust their expertise. In this business, it’s all a matter of trust.” Walong Marketing, Inc., an Asian food distributor based in California, had occupied Hartz’s entire 175,456 s/f 99 Caven Point Rd. in Jersey City as the company’s East Coast distribution center for 10 years, and opted to renew and stay in place for another 20 years. ■

And with its location, its transportation infrastructure, and access to the East Coast’s major population centers, Northern New Jersey is an obvious choice for these warehousing and distribution operations.” With the two latest transactions, the 453,000 s/f, singlestory 350 Clark Drive is now almost 90 percent leased, with the remaining availability limited to office space, and divisible to 6,442 s/f.

Dan Cohen, president of North Jersey Development, states, “We at NJDG remain highly focused on the corporate strategies of our tenants and providing creative, flexible environments and attentive services.” “Because NJDG approaches its portfolio with a long-term vision, the principals maintain many lasting tenant relationships,” adds Katz. ■

Every packaged pumping system manufactured is electrically, hydrostatically and flow tested at job conditions prior to shipment. The manufacturing and testing is designed to assure ease of installation, simplified start-up procedures, and many years of trouble free service. Canariis packages are not a “one-size-fits-all” approach because this will not always offer the best overall solution. Every system is custom engineered to the specific project requirements and space limitations for your application. Many Owners have strong preferences for certain manufacturers of pumps, valves, hydronics, building automation controls and variable frequency drives. Canariis Corporation has the flexibility to use the equipment that the customer prefers while still providing a quality assembly. The state of the art Canariis Corp. Test facility consists of a 24,000 gallon test tank equipped with permanently mounted flow sensors of various sizes, manual valves, automatic valves, Ystrainers, differential pressure sensors, KW sensors, pressure gauges, suction pressure simulation pumping equipment, and multiple suction connections. Every system is tested at the Canariis Corporation factory. These tests occur at various stages of the manufacturing process. The control panel test includes verification of wiring, component operation and programming. After assembly, the packaged pumping system shall be hydrostatically tested at a pressure depending upon system parameters. Each pump on every system shall be individually tested for performance while at full speed. HVAC variable speed systems are tested for efficiency to optimize the pump sequencing. Once the system performance is verified, every sequence,

alarm and operation of the system is tested and verified to be functional prior to removal from the test tank. All of the Canariis NIST Traceable instrumentation is independently calibrated in accordance with NIST and Hydraulic Institute Standards.

WEIL PUMP US Made Heavyduty Wastewater Pumps

Weil Pump WEIL PUMP manufacturers top quality submersible and vertical sewage, sump and grinder pumps, controls, wet well covers, and pump system accessories for the commercial, industrial, and municipal markets. The trade often calls WEIL PUMP the HEAVYWEIGHT. A

Weil pump model consistently OUTWEIGHS and OUTLASTS similar pumps. This difference is by design to make the best. The result is a distortion-free part with high rigidity, consistent machined dimensions, and a longer service life. Weil submersible motors are air-filled. The only submersible motor with worldwide engineering acceptance is an air-filled motor. The manufacturing cost is higher. The end result is better. In 1909, the Weil brothers apprenticed themselves in the pump business. During the first 18 years, they built an admirable reputation for reliability and service to the construction industry. With increasing demand in the industry, Nathan, Ralph and George Weil established their own business in 1927. Extensive research and development programs were adopted which resulted in Weil Pump Co. becoming a leader in the manufacturing of modern pumping equipment. A good example of this research and development work was the development of the first submersible sewage ejector in 1951. WEIL has also been very successful in the development of pumps for the U.S. Navy. In the mid-1960’s WEIL developed the first UL approved submersible explosion proof pump for Class 1, Division 1, Groups C&D. Today, WEIL has added new products such as grinder, slicer, and effluent pumps and has improved the design of many products. Weil Pump control panels have been updated to meet IEC and NEMA standards and most models are UL approved. WEIL is dedicated to building sewage and sump pumps which offer the best value in the industry today. WEIL pumps have the lowest life cycle cost of any pump available. WEIL’s insistence on high quality and rugged designs ensure the least maintenance over the life of the pump. Every time a pump is removed for maintenance, significant costs quickly add up to exceed the original purchase price. The pump requiring the fewest number of removals is the best value – and no one beats WEIL for dependable in-pit operating time. All castings are poured in the U.S. All parts are machined and assembled in WEIL’s own manufacturing facility in the U.S.

WEIL PUMPS CONSISTANTLY OUTWEIGH & OUTLAST THE COMPETITION.

Sheraton Lincoln Harbor Hotel is a 346-room hotel on the Hudson River waterfront overlooking Manhattan. Originally constructed in 1991, the property was expanded in 1999 and was renovated over the last two years. The renovation included the use of environmentally sound building materials such as low VOC (volatile organic compound) paints and carpeting. Operationally, the hotel also altered its operating practices in an environmentally-friendly way primarily in its housekeeping and laundry departments. “Green practices are difficult in hotels because they require collaboration with guests who we want to make as comfortable as possible and over whom we have little control,”

said Emanuel Stern, president and COO of Hartz Mountain Industries. “But hotels can be positively wasteful and that makes it all the more important to insist on programming that holds everyone accountable – so we are very gratified to be recognized by the USGBC for our work.” Hartz Mountain won BOMA New Jersey Chapter’s First Annual Building Energy Reduction Awards program for its advancement of a solar energy program that will have a capacity of 15 MW of power by the conclusion of 2011. Hartz received a second BOMA honor in recognition of energy reduction at five of its commercial properties including, 200 and 400 Plaza Drive in Secaucus, 707 Broad Street in Newark, 15 Exchange Place and 90 Hudson Street in Jersey City. The energy savings at these locations resulted in an overall consumption reduction of 13% and an annual savings of $262,243. Hartz’s sustainability program was launched in 2009 to reduce the company’s environmental footprint and included the installation of energy efficient lighting, water conservation measures, and high efficient boilers to optimize buildings’ mechanical features. Also included was a mandate that all the company’s new ground-up construction and major renovations pass a LEED scorecard analysis. ■

Don’t miss what you need to take and what you need to know!

MANY different, new, interesting seminars coming to South Jersey!

o you realize that on September 1st, you will need to change the way you “think” when developing and reporting a residential appraisal assignment? Every appraisal report used in a transaction that involves Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac must comply with the Uniform Appraisal Dataset (UAD)! The Appraisal Institute has created a one-day, 7-hour seminar to address these important changes: “Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac’s Uniform Appraisal Dataset.” The UAD entails learning new definitions for condition and quality, updating and remodeling and many other “standardized” responses to provide your client with a UAD-compliant appraisal report! Not to mention understanding the USPAP and liability ramifications of the standardization. Don’t be fooled, there is much to learn about the new UAD; so come and attend this one-day seminar to successfully transition to the new way of thinking. The Southern New Jersey Chapter of the Appraisal Institute will hold this class on Wednesday, July 13th at the Adelphia Restaurant and Conference Center in Deptford. Register on-line at www.appraisalinstitute.org/education/ southernNewJersey or contact Lisamayweiss@hotmail.com to reserve a spot.

How Fire Sprinkler Systems Operate

ontinued from page 2B thermal linkage and cap in place, and support the deflector during discharge. Frame styles include standard and low profile, flush, and concealed mount. Some frames are designed for extended spray coverage, beyond the range of normal sprinklers. Standard finishes include brass, chrome, black, and white. Custom finishes are available for aesthetically sensitive spaces. Special coatings are available for areas subject to high corrosive effect. Selection of a specific frame style is dependent on the size and type of area to be covered, anticipated hazard, visual impact features, and atmospheric conditions. • Thermal linkage – The thermal linkage is the component which controls water release. Under normal conditions the linkage holds the cap in place and prevents water flow, however, as the link is exposed to hear it weakens and releases the cap. Common linkage styles include soldered metal levers, frangible glass bulbs, and solder pellets. Each link style is equally dependable. Upon reaching the desired operating temperature, an approximate 30 second to 4 minute time lag will follow. This lag is the time required for linkage fatigue and is largely controlled by the link materials and mass. Standard responding sprinklers operate closer to the 3 to 4 minute mark while quick response (QR) sprinkler operate in significantly shorter periods. Selection of a sprinkler response characteristic is dependent upon the existing risk, acceptable loss level and desired response action. • Cap – The cap provides the watertight seal that is located over the sprinkler orifice. This component is held in place by the thermal linkage. Operation of the linkage causes the cap to fall from position and permit water flow. Caps are constructed solely of metal or a metal with a Teflon disk. • Orifice – The mechanical opening at the base of the sprinkler frame is the orifice. It is from this opening that extinguishing water flows. Most orifice openings are ½ inch diameter with smaller bores available for residential

applications and larger openings for higher hazards. • Deflector – The deflector is mounted on the frame opposite the orifice. The purpose of this component is to break up the water stream discharging from the orifice into a more efficient extinguishing pattern. Deflector styles determine how the sprinkler is mounted by the angle of their lines. Common sprinkler mounting styles are upright (mounted above the pipe), pendent (mounted below the pipe, i.e. under ceilings), and sidewall sprinklers that discharge water in a lateral position from a wall. The sprinkler must be mounted as designed to ensure proper action. Selection of a particular style is often dependent upon physical building constraints. Fire Sprinkler System Water Source All sprinkler systems require a reliable water source. In urban areas, a piped public service is the most common supply, while rural areas generally utilize private tanks, reservoirs, lakes, or rivers. Where a high degree of reliability is desired, or a single source is undependable, multiple supplies may be utilized. Basic Fire Sprinkler Water Source Criteria Include: • The source must be available at all times – Fires can happen at any time and therefore, the water supply must be in a constant state of readiness. Supplies must be evaluated for resistance to pipe failure, pressure loss, droughts, and other issues that may impact availability. • The system must supply adequate sprinkler supply and pressure – A sprinkler system will create a hydraulic demand, in terms of slow and pressure, on the water supply. The supply must be capable of meeting this demand. Otherwise, supplemental components such as a fire pump or standby tank must be added to the system. • The supply must provide water for the anticipated fire duration – Depending on the fire hazard, suppression may take several minutes to over an hour. The selected source must be capable of providing sprinklers with water until suppression has been

achieved. • The system must provide water for fire department hoses operating in tandem with the sprinkler system. Most fire department procedures involve the use of fire attack hoses to supplement sprinklers. The water supply must be capable of handling this additional demand without adverse impact on sprinkler performance. Selection of Fire Sprinkler Pipe Materials Sprinkler water is transported to fire via a system of fixed pipes and fittings. Piping material options include various steel alloys, copper, and fire resistant plastics. Steel is the traditional material with copper and plastics utilized in many sensitive applications. Primary Considerations for Selection for Pipe Materials Include: • Ease in installation – The easier the material is installed, the less disruption is imposed on the institution’s operations and mission. The ability to install a system with the least amount of disturbance is an important consideration, especially in sprinkler retrofit applications where building use will continue during construction. • Cost of material versus cost of protected area – Piping typically represents the greatest single cost item in a sprinkler system. Often there is a temptation to reduce cist by utilizing less expensive piping materials that may be perfectly acceptable in certain instances, i.e. office or commercial environs. However, in museum applications where the value of contents may be far beyond sprinkler costs, appropriateness of the piping should be the deciding factor. • Contractor familiarity with materials – A mistake to be avoided is on in which the contractor and pipe materials have been selected, only to find out that the contractor is inexperienced with the pipe. This can lead to installation difficulties, added expense, and increased failure potential. A contractor must demonstrate familiarity with the desired material before selection. • Prefabrication requirements or other installation constraints – In some instanc-

es requirements may be imposed to limit the amount of work time in the space. This will often require extensive prefabrication work outside of the work area. Some materials are easily adapted to prefabrication. • Material cleanliness – Some pipe materials are cleaner to install than others. Various materials are also resistant to accumulation in the system water. Cleanliness of installation and discharge should be a consideration. • Labor requirements – Some pipe materials are heavier or more cumbersome to work with than others. Consequently additional workers are needed to install pipes that can add to installation costs. If the number of construction workers allowed into the building is a factor, lighter materials may be beneficial. Major Fire Sprinkler System Components The basic components of a fire sprinkler system are the sprinklers, system piping, and a dependable water source. Most systems also require alarm and system control valves. Other Major Sprinkler System Components Include: • Control valves – A sprinkler system must be capable of shut down after the fire has been controlled, and for periodic maintenance and modification. Control valves provide this function. In the simplest system a single shutoff valve may be located at the point where the water supply enters the building. In larger buildings the sprinkler system may consist of multiple zones with a control valve for each. Control valves should be located in readily identified location to assist responding emergency personnel. • Alarms – Alarms alert building components and emergency forces when a sprinkler water flow occurs. The simplest alarms are water driven gongs supplied by the sprinkler system. Electrical flow and pressure switches, connected to a building fire alarm system, are more common in large buildings. Alarms are also provided to alert building management when a sprinkler valve is closed. • Drain and test connec-

tions – Most sprinkler systems have provisions to drain pipes during system maintenance. Drains should be properly installed to remove all water from the sprinkler system, and prevent water from leakage onto protected spaces, when piping service is necessary. It is advisable to install drains at a remote location from the supply, thereby permitting effective system flushing to remove debris. Test connections are usually provided to simulate the flow of a sprinkler flow, thereby verifying the working condition of alarms. Test connections should be operated every 6 months. • Specialty valves – Drypipe and preaction sprinkler systems require complex, special control valves that are designed to hold water from the system piping until needed. These control valves also include air pressure maintenance equipment and emergency operation/release systems. • Fire hose connections – Fire fighters will often supplement sprinkler systems with hoses. Firefighting tasks are enhanced by installing hose connections to sprinkler system piping. The additional water demand imposed by these hoses must be factored into the overall sprinkler design in order to prevent adverse system performance. • Backflow preventer – The normal backflow requirement for an automatic fire sprinkler system is a double check valve assembly. When chemical additives are a part of the sprinkler system, such as anti-freeze, the backflow protection is typically by a reduced pressure principle backf0low preventer. A backflow preventer prevents the backflow of polluted water into the potable water supply. • Manifold – Manifolds are used to run direct water lines to each plumbing fixture. The manifold system saves installers time by eliminating the number of connections required in the system. Pressure fluctuations are also reduced. AMC Fire Protection provides you with 1-stopshopping for all your fire and security protection needs. ■

Celebrating 20th Anniversary

LMS Commercial Real Estate continues to expand its managed portfolio by over 650,000 s/f

ust three short years ago, Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy protection and froze capital markets to an unprecedented extent. This watershed event, sandwiched between months of economic uncertainty, forced every real estate company to reexamine its strategy for the future. In response, many real estate firms elected to cut pipeline development and slowly disband active development affairs. The fallout from this strategy became immediately apparent with â&#x20AC;&#x153;Quiet Offeringsâ&#x20AC;? of many prominent properties hitting the street as key tenants defaulted or equity needed to be liquefied. In spite of the uncertain economic climate since the Lehman bankruptcy, Property Management Alternatives, doing business as LMS Commercial Real Estate continues to expand its portfolio of managed and leased properties, adding over 650,000 s/f in the past three years. LMS is a full-service commercial real estate firm covering the Central Pennsylvania market. It provides a unique blend of Leasing, Sales, Property and Asset Management, Tenant Representation, Construction, Development, and Acquisition services for the Retail, Residential, Professional Office, and Medical segments.

Sustaining a business model which encompasses all of these specialties is a difficult challenge. Where many organizations respond to growth by adding vertically integrated business units to drive sales, LMS has amassed a team of industry leading professionals to drive results. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The problem with pure vertical integration is cycles. Real estate is a cyclical industry. After the cycle peaks, those â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Strategic Busi-

Leasing Management Sales Development Construction

ness Unitsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; become individual units each fighting to sustain itself independent of the others. The result is not vertical, rather, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s horizontal. We operate as a sophisticated team of professionals with expertise in every facet of commercial real estate. After the cycle peaks, we are still in the right position and ready to solve our clientsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; problems,â&#x20AC;? says owner Joe R. Deerin. His partner and sister Donna Deerin Ward simplified

this by adding â&#x20AC;&#x153;We create, maximize, and sustain value for our clients and we do it through experience.â&#x20AC;? Both Joe and Donna work closely with their father, Joe W. Deerin, who founded LMS in 1991. It is difficult to argue with the LMS approach. Since 2008 they have developed or redeveloped three grocery anchored shopping centers, three medical office buildings, and a CVS, Giant-to-Go, &

Susquehanna Bank anchored community center with 35,000 s/f of inline space, Queensgate Towne Center, South Hanover Shopping Center, Main Street Center, The Shoppes at Landis Valley, and Noll Drive Professional Offices are all projects which were guided to success by the LMS business model. What is even more impressive is the fact that LMS maintains a healthy pipeline of new projects throughout the region including

multiple â&#x20AC;&#x153;High-Profileâ&#x20AC;? locations in Lancaster, Cumberland, and Lebanon counties. Another metric of LMSâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success is its numerous long-term professional relationships. One such example of this relationship LMS has with Giant Foods, â&#x20AC;&#x153;With LMS as a partner, you can have the confidence that your project is in good hands,â&#x20AC;? according to Bill Shrader, vice president of Real Estate for Ahold USA, parent of Giant Food Stores, LLC. Relationships like this develop over time and are built on trust, when asked what do you attribute these tenured relationships to, Donna Deerin Ward responds, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We tell the truth and keep our promises.â&#x20AC;? The value of solid relationships in real estate is immeasurable, particularly as it relates to areas of management, in fact, one could argue that before there was a financial crisis, there existed a management crisis. In academia this issue is recited as the Agency Problem because quite often the disconnect between an agent and the principal results in agent decisions which fail to respect the best interest of the owner over personal interests. In difficult economic times we are left to depend on the company we keep, the values and business approach of LMS truly exhibits sustainability, especially in difficult times. n

Green Building Council to present award to Ten Penn owners PHILADELPHIA, PA — Ten Penn Center Associates, L.P., and the City of Philadelphia are announced that Ten Penn Center, located at 1801 Market St., has been awarded LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification at the Gold level by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). LEED is the USGBC’s leading rating system for designing and constructing the world’s greenest, most energy efficient and high-performing buildings. The milestone marks the first LEED Gold certification for an existing building in Philadelphia, and the third office building in the state of

Pennsylvania. “Ten Penn Center has proudly taken the lead in demonstrating how existing buildings can join the movement to make Philadelphia ‘America’s Greenest City’ by 2015,” said Dan Busch of Greenville Partners, a partner in the building’s ownership with Sterling American Property Inc. “And by introducing green practices in the workplace, where our 1,700 tenants are spending the better part of their day, it’s our hope that they not only enjoy an enhanced work environment but also carry over some of those green principles to their home life.” “Ten Penn Center’s LEED

Gold certification demonstrates tremendous green building leadership,” said Rick Fedrizzi, President, CEO and Founding Chair, U.S. Green Building Council. Built in 1981 and acquired by Ten Penn Center Associates, L.P., in the fall of 2006, Ten Penn Center is a 721,408 gross s/f, class A commercial office building at the corner of 18th and Market streets in Center City. In 2010, having earned its Energy Star Label, Ten Penn Center brought in LEEDing Edge Consultants to refine its operations and maintenance systems to achieve LEED certification for energy, lighting, water and material use. ■

CBRE arrange lease of Non profit school WAYNE, PA — CB Richard Ellis, Inc.’s (CBRE) Greater Philadelphia Suburban office represented the tenant, Academy In Manayunk (AIM), in a 15-year, 63,512 s/f lease at River Park 2 in Conshohocken, PA. CBRE’s brokerage team, comprised of Senior Associate Mike Barker and senior vice president Dan Dagit, successfully relocated AIM from Manayunk to 1200 River Rd. in Conshohocken. AIM is the fastest growing school for children with learning differences in the region and their new space at River Park 2 reflects that growing need. AIM serves children from grades 1 through 12 with language-based learning disabilities such as dyslexia, dysgraphia and dyscalculia. Not only do they provide assistance and education to students, but also to teachers through their carefully crafted teacher training and outreach programs. This research to practice approach has trained over 1000 teachers since AIM was founded.

The CBRE brokerage team was able to find AIM a unique space that would allow for a field, gymnasium/performing arts center and expansion of classrooms. The location was also extremely convenient for the school because of the close proximity to its original site in Manayunk, the Conshohocken Boat House where AIM’s crew team is based, and public transportation by way of the Manayunk/Norristown SEPTA regional rail line. AIM will be able to utilize the property in several different ways. A professional development wing has been created to accommodate three state of the art teacher training classrooms, which will allow them to continue Wilson Reading, LETRS, and other training workshops. Having a space that fulfills their need for growth has provided the school with assurance that they can continue to be an enduring resource for children, families and educators throughout the region. ■
