The Office Building of the Year (TOBY) Award was created in 1985 to recognize excellence in the office building industry. The TOBY Award is one of the most prestigious and highly-esteemed awards in the real-estate industry. The comprehensive criteria for the award includes; excellence in building management, operational efficiency, tenant retention, emergency planning, and community impact.
The Middle Atlantic Conference of the Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) is currently comprised of 15 BOMA locals within the states of: Maryland; Massachusetts; New York; Connecticut; New Jersey; Pennsylvania; and the District of Columbia, Washington DC. The region’s mission is to assist the various local members in promoting a stronger network, better advocacy, more professional education, and to continue to help members in the real estate industry.
Cooper Pest Solutions qualified for this award because they were the recipients of their local 2007 Office Building of the Year Award for BOMA NJ in the under 100,000 square foot category.

Cooper Pest Solutions, located at 351 Lawrence Station Road, is a 6,800 square foot office building that is home to 60+ employees. The buildings amenities are numerous and have contributed to a high employee retention rate.
