Janus Property Company Hosts Manhattanville Tour

The Janus Property Company recently hosted the NYC BUILDS BIO+ organization and its members for a private tour of the Manhattanville Factory District, the largest privately-owned development in West Harlem. The tour was followed by a conversation with several of the District’s life sciences tenants.

The District spans four acres and 1.1 million square feet connecting Columbia University, City College and the 125th Street arts and innovation corridor in West Harlem. The tour included the 150,000-square-foot Mink Building, the 50,000-square-foot Sweets Building, and the recently completed 200,000-square-foot Malt House and 350,000-square-foot Taystee Lab Building.

The District has been a first mover delivering highly technical life sciences space to individuals, start-ups, publicly held companies and researchers, according to Janus.

Introductory comments were made by Nancy J. Kelley, president & CEO, NYC Build Bio+, followed by an explanation of the District and various buildings from Janus principals Scott Metzner and Jerry Salama.
