The five-story property is situated on 11.5 acres with well-appointed tenant amenities, including an outdoor patio, fitness center, dining area, collaboration and conference space, and extensive parking including a three-story garage. Floor plates are open and flexible, allowing both office and lab tenants to customize space for their evolving needs. There are plans in place to update the lobby with a café/coffee bar and implement new clean building technology including automatic doors, touchless buttons and enhanced ventilation.
