JLL completes 150,000 s/f improvement project for GSI Group, team includes: Wassersug, DePippo, Ginand, White, Mitchell and Baldwin; lease negotiations led by Cordeau

Jones Lang LaSalle has completed a 150,000 s/f base building rehab and tenant improvement project for GSI Group, Inc. at 125 Middlesex Turnpike. The facility consolidates GSI's Mass. locations and serves as the global manufacturing leader's global headquarters. Jones Lang LaSalle's construction team was led by project executive Steven Wassersug. Other team leadership included: senior construction manager William DePippo, estimator Karl Ginand, and superintendents Kevin White, James Mitchell and Jeff Baldwin. Winter St. architects served as architect and RDK Engineers as engineer. Jones Lang LaSalle senior VP Daniel Cordeau represented GSI during its lease negotiations at the property. Construction included improvement of 90,000 s/f of manufacturing, warehouse, testing and assembly areas and 60,000 s/f of office space. Key features of the new facility include: integration of a state of the art testing area; light assembly areas; and 100,000 s/f clean room environments. The project was completed in five months and delivered one month ahead of schedule. "GSI is a highly energized client and passionate about their new facility. We successfully delivered a state of the art facility in a period of time that was compliant with their corporate challenging time line for the move. We wouldn't have been able to deliver the facility four weeks ahead of schedule without the outstanding collaboration of the architect, engineer, client and our entire construction team," said DePippo, Jones Lang LaSalle's construction team is manages over $190 in project volume annually. Their work ranges from interior buildouts to mixed-use developments with specialties in office, laboratory, manufacturing and distribution facility, renovation, R facility and retail projects.
