The tenant provided a detailed list of requirements that were critical to get the facility ready for appropriate operation. Our team handled the relationships with all sub-contractors to ensure exact customization and specifications were met.
Facility square footage totals 112,530 square feet
The lease was written to activate when the last up-fit requirement had been completed. Completed all up fit requirements within 2 months.
