We are proud to have 749 University Row in the University Crossing Development win the Project of the Year Award for the 2015 InBusiness Commercial Design Awards…this marks our third year winning Project of the Year!

The headquarters is home to 65 support and management staff, and includes room for what Nordic calls its remote solutions center which enables their staff to do exactly what they do on-site with clients.
