Case Study
Duke School of Medicine and Engineering Department

01.
The Issue
Much like DMPI, there were a host of challenges to overcome with the chief building of interest. Once again, Duke would need to negotiate a lease to redevelop a historic American Tobacco warehouse involving several forms of tax credits with an owner that was eager for a signed lease well before many burdensome details were resolved.
02.
The Solution
Again, Duke engaged Davis Moore to look after its interests: project feasibility and cost.
03.
The Benefit
Beyond the traditional project management and cost saving benefits, Davis Moore was able to structure a phased occupancy that allows Duke to comfortably grow into the full 120,000 square foot commitment over a two year period.
