Research Triangle Park, N.C.
Bayer CropScience will begin construction in late summer of 2014 on a $29.6 million expansion of its seed research headquarters in Research Triangle Park, N.C. The project includes extensive infrastructure development and construction of a 29,500-sf greenhouse to support the study of nematode traits, plant diseases, and insects. Clark Nexsen is the architect and engineer for the sustainably designed facility, which will feature a rainwater collection system, a reflective roof, low-flow plumbing fixtures, lighting controls, and an HVAC energy management system. Completion is expected in late 2015.
