Ozzy Properties signs a long-term 12,000 s/f lease at Dundee Park to ELEV802 Boston for hockey facility

Andover, MA Ozzy Properties, a premier property manager, has signed a long-term, 12,000 s/f lease at its Dundee Park facility to ELEV802 Boston to develop a premier ice hockey skills and training facility.

ELEV802 Boston is aspiring to become the premier on-ice training facility in this area. They will be working with players of all skill levels in order to help them reach their potential through individualized private training with a special emphasis on youth hockey.

In keeping with Ozzy’s commitment to tailoring building needs to its tenants, ELEV802 Boston will occupy its own custom building at Dundee Park. Construction will start as soon as possible with an opening expected this summer.

“As a group we could not be more excited to open ELEV802 Boston here in Andover.  I think we will bring something new to the community and the town that will be exciting for all local hockey players from youth to pro.  We are excited to work with many players from the area as well as Andover Hockey Association.” said ELEV802 owner Jon Hutcheon.

Hutcheon added “ELEV802 in Vermont has been able to reach hockey players all over the world through sharing videos and really engaging with their following through social media.  Peter Lenes and Torrey Mitchell have a vision of changing the way players develop on ice through small groups by keeping the lessons fun and interactive for all players.  Their vision and beliefs line up perfectly with mine, I truly believe this is a perfect partnership for everyone involved.”

Jon Hutcheon, Manager, said the company was drawn to Dundee Park for a number of reasons, including convenient access to downtown Andover and parking.  Building 5 is ideally suited to their needs and will enable the company to install a training size ice rink (75’ x 45’), fitness rooms, skills areas, office and retail support.

Ellen Keller, Vice President of Commercial Real Estate for Ozzy Properties reports, “We are proud to bring new business to downtown Andover.  ELEV802 Boston is excited to complete their new space and open up to the community.  We welcome their energy and enthusiasm.”

Kevin Sneddon, President and Director of Operations of ELEV802 commented, “We are extremely fortunate to team up with Jon Hutcheon and his partners to bring our brand to the Boston area, and in particular, the Andover, MA community.  Equally important to us, is the quality of leased space that Ozzy Properties has provided ELEV802 Boston.  This is a long-term partnership that will see tremendous growth in the coming years.”

ELEV802 Boston will be joining other destination tenants at Dundee Park such as the Real School of Music, Planet Color and Professional Stylist Forum salons, The Creative Arts Dance Studio and Tiny Tunes, and Elite Fitness.  The lease signing follows other recent deals including the expansion of Best You Fitness in building 6 and the expansion and relocation of Andover Auto School in building 2.    

Dundee Park, which features custom oversized windows and classic post and beam architecture, provides easy access to I-495 and I-93. The complex is located 25 minutes outside of Boston and a short walk from the commuter rail.  Dundee Park’s success mirrors that of other Ozzy Properties commercial facilities, including Osgood Landing in North Andover and Heritage Place in Lawrence.

Long-term interest rates have fallen by 100 basis points, and the market is normalizing. In December of 2022 I wrote an article about investing in a high interest rate, high inflation market. Since then, inflation has cooled off, and the Fed has begun lowering their funds rate.
