Work will most likely begin next year on the building of a massive life sciences complex in Superior, Colorado, 8 miles to the southeast of Boulder.
The planned Coal Creek Innovation Park is expected to cost upwards of $280 million to build and will comprise three buildings, housing, office space, and labs ranging in size from 85,000 square feet to 150,000 square feet.
The structures will feature 16-foot-high ceilings, as well as what is described as “flexible infrastructure” designed to accommodate any number of offices for lab and research and development uses.
One more structure on the campus will provide both retail and parking space.
The project jointly belongs to PMB, a healthcare real estate developer headquartered in San Diego, California, and the real estate investment firm Montgomery Street Partners, which has offices in both Dallas and New York.
The project is advertising itself as “The Life Sciences Workplace Redefined,” with a campus and buildings “giving forward-thinking companies a place to thrive.”
In a statement, Bill Jencks, PMB senior vice president, noted that the innovation park “represents one of the last infill sites in Boulder County located south of Boulder,” with visibility from the highway U.S. Route 36.
Members of the Superior Town Board have recently given their approval to final development plans for the project.
