The $750- million North Carolina Research Campus (NCRC) in Kannapolis is under construction.
Founded by California billionaire David H. Murdock, chairman, CEO and owner of Dole Foods, the 350- acre (142- hectare) campus about 30 miles (48 km.) north of Charlotte is envisioned as a "biopolis" that may one day create 35,000 jobs (see Site Selection cover story, November 2005).
On April 18, the NCRC celebrated its rapid progress by topping off its new 125,000- sq.- ft. (11,613- sq.- m.) Nutrition Research Facility, the result of a unique partnership between UNC Chapel Hill, UNC Greensboro, UNC A&T and UNC Central.
The centerpiece of the project – the 311,000- sq.- ft. (28,892- sq.- m.) Core Lab Facility – is mostly bricked in now and will be finished by November.
Duke, UNC, UNC Charlotte and N.C. State together will occupy more than 350,000 sq. ft.
Angiogen, a small biotech firm that makes a new cancer therapeutic, announced in March that it would make NCRC its home. "
