Construction at 2500 League Island Boulevard hit a milestone this week as precast panels - fabricated by Universal Concrete Products - began to be delivered and installed at the site. Structuring a building that is nearly the size of 3 football fields, each of the 160 slabs are 41 feet high by 12 feet wide - and weigh 32 tons each!
The panels are a composition of both deeply textured and smooth panels in a unique dark grey color to be accented by bright metal and glass inserts. Developed by Gattuso Development Partners and built by Penntex Construction, the building will be a significant new asset to Philadelphia’s burgeoning life sciences industry.
