The building would go up on 5.5 acres of land the company recently purchased from Magna International Inc., a Canadian automotive supplier.
Magna built a facility on part of the land, but did not need the entire parcel.
Officials from Burton-Katzman have received approval from the city planning commission to change the zoning of a 2 acre piece of property to a higher commercial use. Magna's site is mostly zoned high-office, but the new parcel is vacant, and has research center zoning.
