A
quarter century after it began life as a garage start-up, Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s (NYSE: ARE) decision to focus on the niche segment of life science real estate looks sounder than ever as demand for sophisticated lab space across major U.S. markets sits at an all-time high.
Pasadena, California-based Alexandria is the only publicly traded, pure-play office/laboratory REIT. The company, led by founder and Executive Chairman Joel Marcus, focuses exclusively on highly specialized lab space used for research and development in the booming life science industry.
