Possible Life Sciences and Biotechnology Office Building Coming to Pike & Rose in Location Currently Occupied by Bark Social
We recently learned of plans for a potential new office building that could be constructed at 935 Prose Street in Pike & Rose, the current site of Bark Social.
The plans, authored by Scheer Partners, state that the new building will be a 10-story trophy-class, state-of-the-art research/lab building that marries iconic design, and superior lab functionality. The architectural plans show lab space, office space, a fitness center, outdoor green terrace, conference facility, and more.
We spoke with Federal Realty for further information. They shared, “Federal is in the preliminary stages of exploring a new office building, with a focus on the life sciences and biotechnology industry. We enjoy the activation and unique offering that Bark Social has brought to the neighborhood, and endeavor to continue a long-term relationship with the team.”
We also reached out to Bark Social for comment. They responded, “ Your communication with us was the first we’ve heard of this news. We’re reaching out to Federal Realty to learn the details. We love MoCo and will ALWAYS be in MoCo. When [we] find out what is happening, you’ll find out what’s happening.”
According to a brochure on the website of the future building, Scheer Partners anticipates that construction will take approximately 18 months and that the building will be open for tenants to move in between April- late June of 2024.
