La Jolla Institute for Allergy & Immunology – New Facility

This 185,000 GSF facility is 3-stories high with a basement. While the basement contains below-grade parking and 13,000 SF vivarium space, the above-grade levels house office, conference space and auditorium, biology and chemistry labs, tissue culture and flow cytometry space, microscopy, and more. LJI maintains a longstanding partnership with Kyowa Hakko Kirin (Japanese pharmaceutical company), who funded this project. Located on UCSD’s Science Research Park, UCSD played a role in this development, including regulatory review and inspections. DPR Construction was the General Contractor and Delawie was the Architect. FF&E, including scientific equipment, was separately funded, but managed holistically.
