The award, presented to Liberty for its 90,000-square-foot 4631 Woodland Corporate Boulevard building, recognizes Liberty’s overall excellence in development and leasing.

This category is open to all office projects (either new construc­tion or renovated projects that were completed during 2008), and criteria in­clude total project value, occupancy rates, market vs. actual rates, and the complexity of project.

“We are very proud that our property won the ‘office building of the year’ award,” said Jody Johnston, (bottom left photo) vice president and city manager for Liberty Property Trust.
“Receiving the NAIOP award is prestigious, but more importantly, the award process provides us with the opportunity to measure our successes in development and leasing against the industry, while giving our team feedback that we can implement across our portfolio.”
