Denholtz Properties Inks Full-Building Lease with Leading Pickleball Franchise in Hamilton, N.J.

Denholtz Properties announces it has signed a full-building, 40,500-square-foot lease with Pickleball Kingdom at 1100 Negron Drive in Hamilton, N.J.

Completed in 2023, 1100 Negron Drive is a 40,500-square-foot single-story flex/industrial building featuring 26’ clear ceilings. The property is strategically located less than a quarter mile from the intersection of Interstate 195 and Route 130 and one mile from Exit 7A on the New Jersey Turnpike offering superior access to the Philadelphia and New York City metropolitan areas via nearby Interstates 95 and 295.

The building is a key piece of Denholtz Properties’ New Jersey light industrial development portfolio that includes 110 North Gold Drive, a 32,147-square-foot industrial building currently under construction in Robbinsville, N.J. and 245 Willowbrook Road, a 101,116 industrial property in Freehold, N.J. that broke ground earlier this year.

Founded by CEO Ace Rodrigues in 2021, Pickleball Kingdom is the leading pickleball court franchisor in the United States. In partnership with entrepreneur and franchisee Samrat “Sam” Sood, Pickleball Kingdom plans to construct an expansive 14-court pickleball facility at 1100 Negron Drive that will feature conference rooms, meeting areas, a lounge, ample parking and a mezzanine overlooking the courts. The space is scheduled to open this fall.

“Pickleball has become one of the nation’s most popular sports over the last several years,” said Sood. “This gorgeous facility will be a hub for the vibrant pickleball community of Hamilton, creating friendships and unforgettable experiences for seasoned players and newcomers alike.”

Kris Hurlbut, Senior Vice President, Leasing of Denholtz Properties, added, “This lease highlights the continued strong demand for highly adaptable properties like 1100 Negron Drive in the current market. We are excited to welcome Pickleball Kingdom to Hamilton and watch them bring residents of the central New Jersey area together with this facility.”
