Newmark[1] announces it has arranged six new leases at 100 Shoreline, a Class A two-building office complex, totaling 60,000 square feet located in the prominent bayside location of Mill Valley, California in southern Marin County. The two-story and three-story buildings, totaling 98,861 square feet, were built in 1985 and feature distinctive wood and steel framed construction with extensive interior and exterior improvements and water or mountain views.
Newmark Executive Managing Director Haden Ongaro and Director Alisa Belew represented the landlord, Basin Street Properties, in the lease transactions.

“Club Evexia, Jyzen Labs, Basin Street and Newmark executed on a shared vision of turning Shoreline into the unique health and wellness center it is today. The partnership and camaraderie between Newmark, Basin Street and the two companies was truly spectacular and rewarding in turning this vision into a reality in Southern Marin,” added Belew.
