9514 Towne Centre

Embedded in San Diego’s landscape, 9514 TCD takes advantage of the site’s existing topography and open space to locate and integrate itself into its surroundings. Designed to support life-science users, the deep landscape buffers and the city’s temperate climate frame attractive amenities that can also support contemporary creative offices.

The project is in San Diego’s “Hub of Innovation”, a neighborhood that has earned its name with its extensive science and research community. The two-story building is planned and designed to support laboratory uses through an open and flexible plan with perimeter columns, deep bays, 16-foot floor to floors, and high-load, vibration-resistant floors. The high floors promote tall 12’-0” windows to provide exceptional office daylighting across the deep office bays.
