Wright of Cummings negotiates 7,600 s/f lease to LitmanGerson Associates

On the heels of its 30th anniversary as both a Woburn CPA firm and a Cummings Properties tenant, LitmanGerson Associates, LLP has expanded to a 7,600 s/f facility at 600 West Cummings Park. Cummings Props. operations manager Erica Wright negotiated the transaction. The firm's first lease for space was for only a few hundred square feet at Woburn's Tower Office Park in May 1980. Over the years, founding partner Gerald Gerson moved the company several times to accommodate the fast growing business and staff, yet he always leased from Cummings Props. in the same area. According to Gerson, "West Cummings Park provides the perfect location, close to I-93 and I-95, to serve our large client base." LitmanGerson is now comprised of 25 professionals, many of whom have national firm expertise, offering audits, reviews, and management consulting in addition to the company's base services of tax planning and accounting. The firm services clients locally as well as internationally. Cummings Properties is a full-service real estate development, property management, and construction firm with 83 buildings in 10 Boston area communities. It leases 10 million square feet of commercial space to more than 2,000 clients.
