Trammell Crow and CBRE IM to Develop Life Science Complex in San Diego

Commercial real estate developer Trammell Crow Company (TCC) in partnership with CBRE Investment Management have announced plans to build Vista Sorrento Labs, a 116,000-square-foot life science complex in San Diego. The partnership plans to break ground later this year and complete the project in early 2024.

Vista Sorrento Labs will be a speculative, purpose-built four-story building designed to deliver Class A lab, clean room and office space featuring upgraded MEP, 16-foot floor-to-floor heights and on-site chemical storage. Plans for the building also include EV charging stations, indoor and outdoor conference rooms and LEED certification.

“The TCC team is excited to officially kick off the marketing process for this world-class life science project in San Diego, a market we strongly believe in,” said Trammell Crow’s Chris Tipre. “This fall’s groundbreaking will mark the first of multiple planned ground-up life science developments in Sorrento Mesa, which will add approximately 700,000 square feet of much-needed life science space to the submarket.”
