Norwalk, CT - Clarion Partners and Marcus Partners announced today that CBRE’s Fairfield/Westchester office has been appointed the exclusive leasing agent for Merritt 7 Corporate Park, a six-building, 1.4 million-square-foot, Class-A office park in Norwalk, CT. This marks the first time that leasing for this prestigious property has been undertaken by an outside brokerage firm. The CBRE team of Tom Pajolek, Executive Vice President; Robert Caruso, Senior Managing Director; and Senior Vice Presidents Steven Greenbush and Ned Burns will oversee the assignment under the guidance of Marcus Partners.
To further build on Merritt 7’s position as the market leader for Class-A office space in Central Fairfield County, ownership has committed to enhancing the Merritt 7 brand, image and sense of community.

“We are thrilled to be chosen by Clarion Partners and Marcus Partners to help drive the leasing efforts at Merritt 7. This will be the premier assignment in our leasing portfolio in Fairfield County.” noted Mr. Caruso. “This iconic portfolio of office buildings is already home to an impressive group of household names, and is ideally positioned to attract a diverse range of new tenants thanks to its incredible location, scale, amenities package, stable ownership, and responsive and strong management.”
