Kaiser Permanente’s Mission Bay Parcel Purchase: Timing And Terms

Kaiser Permanente is paying $55.2 million for the parcel of land upon which they will be building their new Medical Services building at 1600 Owens Street in Mission Bay, having canceled their contentious plan to build a few blocks away at the base of Potrero Hill.

The sale of the parcel which is zoned for 10-stories and 246,000 square feet is slated to close in December. Alexandria Real Estate, the seller, will manage the construction of Kaiser’s new building, the original designs for which are likely to be tweaked.

PASADENA, Calif., Dec. 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ — Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. (NYSE: ARE), the leading owner, operator, and developer of high-quality, sustainable real estate for the broad and diverse life science industry, is pleased to announce the execution of 57 lease transactions to date in the fourth quarter of 2013 aggregating approximately 1.2 million rentable square feet (RSF). This very significant leasing activity contributes to overall leasing of approximately 3.5 million RSF in 2013 to date. This strong demand reflects the broad and diverse life science industry’s increasing need to locate in Alexandria’s Class-A assets in AAA, CBD cluster locations where they can innovate, collaborate, and translate breakthrough discoveries into high-impact, cost-effective products that will save lives, manage disease, and reduce the economic burden of disease on society.
Alexandria’s milestone leasing accomplishment was driven by activity in each of its cluster markets, including Greater Boston, the San Francisco Bay Area, San Diego, and New York City for high-quality client tenants, including Celgene Corporation, Google Inc., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Novartis AG, the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), and the University of North Carolina (UNC). Alexandria also completed a 10-year lease extension with Quest Diagnostics, Inc. for approximately 248,000 RSF at 14225 Newbrook Drive in Virginia.
During the fourth quarter of 2013, Alexandria also closed on the sale of land and certain parking spaces at 1600 Owens Street to Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Inc. (Kaiser). Kaiser paid approximately $55.2 million for the site, which Alexandria will develop, for a fee, into a world-class medical office building. This sale completes Alexandria’s monetization/development of its entire land holdings in the Mission Bay life science cluster.
