Wachovia/Wells Fargo Corporate Investment Bank and The Wake Forest University Babcock School of Management will share a 60,000-sf space on the third floor of the new Corporate Center. Jenkins•Peer Architects and Workplace Strategies are working with both organizations to create state-of-the-art offices, classrooms and conferencing spaces.

The Babcock Graduate School of Management will occupy approximately 30,000 square feet of space in the tower. This collaborative, interactive and flexible environment will enhance creative, innovative teaching and learning with unparalleled technology and design. The facility will house WFU's two Charlotte MBA programs and an Executive Education Center.

LEED Certification: The project has targeted LEED Gold certification as part of a larger initiative to make the 50-story Corporate Center the largest LEED Gold-certified building between New York City and Atlanta.

Changing Technology: In order to effectively address the School's future technology requirements, Jenkins•Peer and Wake Forest are working with IBM's Technologies Group. Their investigation includes a visit to the T.J. Watson Research Center in Yorktown, NY. The Center serves as headquarters for the IBM Research Division—the largest industrial research organization in the world with labs worldwide.
