Questions, answered
What exactly is a vanilla shell or white box?
A space finished to a leasable baseline: clean walls, ceiling, lighting, HVAC and utility stubs, and typically a restroom, with the exact list defined by the landlord's lease standard. Landmark builds to that document.
What is the difference between a shell and a tenant build-out?
The shell is the landlord's baseline product; the build-out is the tenant's customization on top of it. Landmark does both, often back to back.
How fast can you turn a vacated space into a white box?
It depends on the previous tenant's improvements and the landlord spec, but running demo through finish as one contract removes the usual gaps between vendors.
Why do white box spaces lease faster?
Prospective tenants can see the space, estimate their own build-out accurately, and their contractors can start immediately. Ambiguity is what slows leases down.
