Programs for Parents, taking 22,000 square feet in a relocation move from within Newark. The not-for-profit organization supports children, families and child care providers in Essex County.

McElroy, Deutsch, Mulvaney & Carpenter, 19,000 square feet. The law firm has 41 attorneys at its Newark office and is also relocating from elsewhere in Newark. Peter Blanchard and Lee Barnes of The Garibaldi Group represented the tenant.

Health Republic Insurance of New Jersey, 12,000 square feet. The non-profit consumer-operated insurance company created under the Affordable Care Act will open its headquarters this spring. Harlan Hollander of Cushman & Wakefield served as tenant broker.

Originally constructed in 1960 by Helmsley-Spear, 570 Broad initially served as IBM's state headquarters, and later as a regional office for First National State Bank. After several ownership changes, the building sat vacant for several years before renovations in 2004 and 2006.
