Genesis Marina is located on an 8.7-acre site within South San Francisco's life science cluster, which is rated the number two market in the United States. With limited nearby new development, Genesis Marina will provide a trophy life science campus offering.
The JLL Capital Markets team representing the borrower was led by Senior Managing Director Tim Wright, Managing Director Todd Sugimoto and Associate Daniel Pinkus.
"The financing opportunity for the Genesis Marina campus attracted a tremendous amount of interest as best-in-class life science developments are highly coveted at the moment," noted Wright. "We are really excited to witness Phase 3's vision for Genesis Marina come to life as one of the newest trophy life science campuses in San Francisco's life science cluster."
"The pandemic really accelerated the demand for life science space as well as attracted new entrants on the lending side," Sugimoto added. "An aging population is driving greater demand for medical innovation and onshoring is driving accelerated demand for U.S. lab and pharmaceutical manufacturing space indicting the long-term strength of this sector."
According to JLL's recent Life Science Outlook, demand continues to grow in South San Francisco as funding sources are increasing and life science graduates from the surrounding colleges continue to flood into the market. Office-to-lab conversions have been the most popular solution to address the rising demand, however there is an ongoing shortage of highly amenitized, purpose-built projects such as Genesis Marina.
