Albuquerque, N.M.
The University of New Mexico broke ground July of 2016 on a $35 million facility in downtown Albuquerque that will act as a living laboratory for entrepreneurial education. Representing the first phase of the planned ABQ innovation district, the six-story, 160,000-sf Lobo Rainforest Building will provide collaboration spaces, meeting rooms, business incubators, and student accommodation. The Air Force Research Laboratory will also lease space in the building, which will offer access to advanced technologies and instrumentation suites. The project team includes architectural firm Dekker/Perich/Sabatini, general contractor Jaynes Companies, and Signet Development. Completion is expected in August of 2017.
