During the comprehensive renovation of Dendreon’s pharmaceutical lab and office space within 1208 Eastlake, nothing was more important than maintaining the firm’s on-going immunotherapy research operations.

Collaboration with end users, facilities managers, design team, and owner representatives resulted in a multi-phased approach that prevented any down time to critical research and development efforts.

Throughout design and construction, the team focused on meeting three overarching goals: optimize layout, modernize systems, and enhance architectural finishes – making sure to reflect Dendreon’s brand and identity along the way. GLY and design-build partners participated throughout the design phase to provide cost and constructability input to ensure the project team met these goals.
