10455 Pacific Center Court is a healthcare R&D office building totaling 92,477 sf located in the Sorrento Mesa submarket of the San Diego MSA. The property is currently 100% leased to a leading medical device maker on a long-term lease. The investment supports GCREIT’s strategic goal of increasing its allocation to the health care sector and provides exposure to San Diego, a leading life science market.
The long-term impact on space demand caused by the work-from-home model, which COVID accelerated, is largely unknown in the health care sector. We have increased our allocation to medical office, life science, and R&D because we believe these alternative office uses are much more insulated from work-from-home solutions.”
