More and more companies realized that wellness programs are linked to greater productivity and less absenteeism. One of Vanta’s popular wellness amenities is our no-fee fitness centers located throughout our portfolio. Another amenity offered to our customers is the use of our Wellness Rooms. City Center West has three such rooms located at 525 Junction Road. All rooms have been updated and remodeled with new paint, carpet, counter tops, furniture and artwork. These Wellness Rooms offer a quite space to escape from your office when you are not feeling well but are most often used by working mothers who need a sanitary and comfortable environment to breastfeed.

InformationPages.com, a growing leader in the technology and online directory industry, recently relocated their business to Vanta Commerical Properties. Based on their need to attract and retain top talent and entertain local and international clients, Information Pages was not interested in a traditional office space. Combining the expertise of Vanta’s in-house design and construction team along with the services of Plunket Raysich Architects, the client’s vision became a reality.
The layout, floor-to-ceiling glass office store fronts, and an eclectic mix of materials and varying ceiling heights make the space very inviting and encourage collaboration. Unlike a traditional white box buildout, demo of the existing office space provided a number of cost saving opportunities.
