Slated for completion in late 2023, Berkeley Commons will be home to two Class-A, three-story R&D buildings. A premier life science campus, offices will hum with world-class science labs, research, innovation and technology – challenging the best minds to pursue their passions.

With a combined square footage of 540,000 square feet, both the Addison and the Bancroft buildings feature large, flexible, contiguous floorplates with floor-ceiling west-facing windows and terra cotta facades. Situated beside the 100-acre Aquatic Park and Bay Trail, Berkeley Commons showcases native landscape along the San Francisco Bay. Collaborative indoor workspace seamlessly blends with surrounding outdoor beauty, encouraging recreational breaks. The environment is inspirational.

Located just minutes from UC Berkeley and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Berkeley Commons is a convenient two-block walk to Fourth Street retail. These LEED Gold buildings will be sustainable with Net-Zero energy core and shell operations. They will have fully electric building systems and EV charging infrastructure.

Amenities will include on-site parking for vehicles and bicycles, a complimentary shuttle to BART and showers and lockers available.
