New Doctor’s Office Opens, Dry Cleaners Relocate In Fairfield

FAIRFIELD, CT — A New York cardiologist is expanding his practice into the area with a new location in Fairfield. Dr. Patrick Fratellone has leased 2,160 square-feet of medical office space at 1817 Black Rock Turnpike in Fairfield, realtors recently announced. It was one of several transactions recently announced by Southport-based commercial real estate firm, Angel Commercial, LLC. Other transactions include an accounting group leasing office space, the relocation of a dry cleaning business and more.

“Dr. Fratellone is a New York City-based cardiologist who is expanding his practice, Fratellone Medical Associates, into the area,” Jon Angel, President of Angel Commercial, said in a press release. “1817 Black Rock Turnpike is in a convenient location for a medical practice since it is strategically situated between both I-95 and the Merritt Parkway.”

Nathan Accounting Group, LLC, has leased 1,696 square-feet of office space at Tide Mill Landing, 2425 Post Road in Southport. Brett A. Sherman, CCIM, Senior Vice President of Angel Commercial, was the sole broker in this transaction.

“Their new Southport location is minutes from I-95 on the Post Road which is ideal for a company expanding into the Fairfield County market,” Sherman said. Headquartered in Avon, Nathan Accounting Group, LLC provides full-service tax, accounting, bookkeeping, and business consulting services. Read more from the press release below:

“While many national retail chains have found the market challenging in recent times, we were able to secure new tenants to fill their space,” Angel said. “Many of today’s new retail tenants tend to provide a product or service that cannot be obtained through online shopping channels.”

The Post Road Dry Cleaners signed a long-term lease for 2,393 square-feet at the Fairfield Shopping Center at 909 Post Road next to Jenny Craig and recently relocated their store from the Rings End Plaza. Angel Commercial was the sole broker in this transaction.

“This was a smart move for Post Road Dry Cleaners since they were able to double their space, and improve the store’s accessibility and parking,” Angel said.

Coastal CT Design, LLC (d/b/a AR Workshop) has leased 2,000 square-feet of retail space at the Fairfield Shopping Center at 869 Post Road. Angel represented the landlord, Post Benson Corporation. AR Workshop is a boutique DIY studio that offers hands-on classes for creating custom home decor from raw materials.

“This is their first location in Connecticut,” Angel said. “The Fairfield Shopping Center, with Bob’s Stores as the anchor tenant, is an ideal spot for this type of studio due to the easy access and abundant parking.”

Shiraz Choudhary of Rocky Hill, purchased a freestanding retail building on 0.20 acres at 730 Brooklawn Avenue in Fairfield for $500,000 from Osprey Properties, LLC, of Denver, Colorado. Ron Agababian, Vice President of Angel Commercial, was the sole broker in the transaction.

“This property, located across from the Brooklawn Country Club and next to the Brooklawn Liquor Store, was previously used as a gas and service station,” Agababian said. “The new owner plans to renovate the building and add a convenience store while providing gasoline sales.”
