Kenwood Quarry LLC, an affiliate of Kenwood Management Company, a mid-Atlantic commercial property owner-manager, announced today that it had completed a 9,800 sf, 7-year lease with Straughan Environmental, a leading engineering and environmental firm advancing sustainable & resilient communities.

Kenwood was represented by Charles Breitenother and Austin Eber from KLNB. Straughan was represented by Scott Matthews from Cushman & Wakefield.

Located at 9175 Guilford Road in Columbia, Maryland, Kenwood purchased Quarry Pond Overlook in 2021. The three-story office building overlooks a large quarry, which is surrounded by mature trees. The office building also features a large deck overlooking the pond for tenants to enjoy. Conveniently located off of Maryland Route 32 and sandwiched between Maryland Route 29 and Interstate I-95, Quarry Pond Overlook is also near Fort Meade.

Commercial Interior Construction has been awarded a contract to improve the space for Straughan. They are expected to occupy their new corporate headquarters in June.

Tom Driscoll, Asset Manager from Kenwood, said, ”We are very excited to welcome Straughan to Quarry Pond Overlook. The property’s unique setting is a perfect match with Straughan’s company goals to promote sustainable work environments.”

Quarry Pond Overlook currently has two suites available. One is 868 sf and the other is 9186 sf, which can be subdivided.
