84,000SF Former Call Center in PA to Become Office Space
Jun 17, 2009

A former Verizon call center in Upper Darby, Pa., has been acquired by a buyer with plans to transform the 84,000-square-foot property into office space. Upper Darby Development Associates L.L.C., a subsidiary of PhillyOfficeRetail.com, bought the three-story complex for an undisclosed price from SSK VP Chestnut L.L.C., and intends to reposition the building’s available office space for corporate and non-profit tenants. The property at 7200 Chestnut Street has been vacant since Verizon moved out last November. Cushman & Wakefield Inc.’s Brian Hilger represented the buyer in the deal.

BOMA Chicago Initiates Country's First Office Building Smart Grid Program
Aug 07, 2009
The Building Owners and Managers Association of Chicago has launched an effort to develop the country's first commercial office building smart grid program, delivering a utility-scale, clean, virtual generator through implementation of smart grid technology in more than 260 commercial buildings in downtown Chicago. With the potential to provide as much as 200 megawatts of demand response capability, the program would lower costs and avoid the need to construct expensive new generation plants. It requires upgrading the buildings' electric metering infrastructure, with significant building-level upgrades. To help address the estimated $185.4 million program cost, the city's BOMA chapter filed an application for $92.7 million in matching funds from the U.S. Department of Energy's Smart Grid Investment Grant Program, which was formed under the recently passed American Reinvestment and Recovery Act.
