New Florida office property is designed for a post-Covid-19 world

Chesterfield is developing the project.


By David Malone, Associate Editor | October 8, 2020

Lake Mary Corporate Center will be Central Florida’s first office property designed for a post-Covid-19 world.

The Class A office park will offer the flexibility of two to three buildings with entitlements totaling up to 300,000 sf, five parking spots for every 1,000 sf, proximity to both workforce and executive housing, and options for nearby shopping and dining.

Lake Mary Corporate Center features design and technology for a post-Covid-19 world. Features include:

–  A touchless workplace, including touchless access control on doors and elevators, all-touchless bathroom utilities and Bluetooth connectivity to phones;

- HVAC systems with carbon dioxide sensors, increased outdoor airflow, a building purge cycle – which flushes out conditioned air and volatile organic compounds – and an energy recovery system to discourage bacterial growth;

-  construction materials, such as germ-resistant products, radio-frequency identification (RFID) access controls, and occupancy sensors;

- De-densification of workspaces, such as spreading out workstations and setting capacity limits on work areas.

The property is currently available for pre-leasing.
