SJP Properties and Scotto Properties Celebrate Topping Out of M Station West, Sanofi’s New Morristown, N.J. Flagship Location
Sanofi To Relocate from Sprawling Suburban Campus to Seven-Story Class A Building in Walkable, Transit-Based Morristown
January 17, 2024 | Press Release
SJP Properties, in partnership with Scotto Properties, celebrated the topping out of Sanofi’s 260,000-square-foot New Jersey flagship location at M Station West in Morristown, New Jersey. The building enjoys three separate and unique active terraces; a world-class 20,000+ square-foot dining experience on the retail level which will be open to the public; and an expansive landscaped rooftop complete with wellness areas for yoga and outdoor movement classes, entertainment, and gardens which will supply food and beverage offerings in the space.
The move to M Station by Sanofi represents a shift from a sprawling, multi-building suburban campus to a seven-story, build-to-suit property in the heart of walkable, transit-oriented Morristown. Known for its lively arts, entertainment and restaurant scene, Morristown will enable a seamless work-life balance for Sanofi’s 1,900 employees who will occupy the building upon completion in Q1 2025.
“The topping out of M Station West is a landmark moment in redefining the modern workplace across New Jersey,” said Steve Pozycki, Founder and CEO of SJP Properties. “State-of-the-art, vertically integrated buildings are attracting the most influential corporations in the world. Sanofi joins Deloitte, which moved its headquarters to M Station East last year, and Valley Bank, which celebrated its grand opening at our new Speedwell Avenue property this fall. These tenants are turning to SJP for property solutions in amenity-rich locations with unrivaled aesthetics and the most advanced infrastructures ever built in the state.”
M Station was designed by Gensler to achieve LEED certification. The property’s floor-to-ceiling glass and metal panel façade will offer abundant light throughout the property while its innovative side core design will enable maximum openness and flexibility on each floor. Further, energy efficiency will be enhanced with solar reflective roofing to enable daylight harvesting.
M Station’s two buildings will be bridged by a 1,000-car parking structure that includes public parking for the development’s on-site retail and EV charging stations. To enhance walkability and create a vibrant pedestrian experience, both buildings are set back 45 feet from Morris Street, creating a 10,000-square-foot landscaped promenade and two public plazas with seating, improving the area’s connectivity, particularly between the nearby NJ TRANSIT station and the historic Morristown Green.
“I am thrilled to welcome Sanofi to its new headquarters in Morristown. SJP and Scotto Properties have successfully executed our vision of a project which would invigorate our business district, attract leading-edge companies, and reinforce our position as one of the top Towns in the country to live and work.” said Tim Dougherty, Mayor of Morristown.
The completed first phase of the M Station, M Station East, exemplifies SJP Properties’ commitment to excellence. The six-story, 120,000-square-foot building was completed in July 2022, roughly one and a half years after initially breaking ground. Deloitte relocated approximately 1,495 employees to the building in Q3 2022.
