Orbital Sciences at the Waters at Ocotillo
Expand corporate operations for a leading space technology company in Chandler, AZ
Gilbane expanded corporate operations for Orbital Sciences Corporation, an American company that specialized in the design, manufacture, and launch of small- and medium-class space and launch vehicle systems for commercial, military, and other government customers (now known as Northrop Grumman Space Systems). Our development team delivered a new 83,000 SF, three-story Class A office building, designed and constructed as a build-to-suit facility. The facility is located at The Waters at Ocotillo, along the high-tech Price Road corridor in Chandler.

- Facility needed to accommodate over 300 program managers and engineers, who were crowded into other Orbital locations throughout Chandler
- Earned distinction as NAIOP AZ Build-to-Suit Development of the Year and was an Arizona Commercial Real Estate’s Honorable Mention Award-Winner for Office Development of the Year
