THE KOPPERS ARE COMING
March 15, 2012
Bisnow first heard the news from St. John Properties' Jerry Wit at our Baltimore County Summit on Feb. 29 (coverage here). On Tuesday, St. John officially announced that it has acquired the five-story, 100k SF office at 3700 Koppers Ave in a Baltimore City Enterprise Zone. |
It was the Environmental Elements Corp HQ for more than 30 years but now stands empty, all the better for a makeover. (Also a perfect place for a bowling alley, though we concede that office is probably a higher and better use.) It will be rebranded Baltimore Gateway for its visibility from I-95 and position at the approach to Baltimore City for 180,000 cars a day (OK, so some of those are outbound). The lobby, common areas, and bathrooms will be modernized, and low-E windows will go in, as will a new HVAC. The $8M redo will deliver mid-year. |
