550 E. Swedesford Rd., Wayne, PA

WAYNE AND KING OF PRUSSIA, PA, AND FLORHAM PARK, NJ—Two buildings in the Philadelphia area owned by KBS Realty Partners, and five KBS assets in Florham Park, NJ, have achieved Wired Certifications from WiredScore, which created the international standard that distinguishes best-in-class Internet connectivity in office buildings.

WiredScore awarded its Gold Wired Certification to KBS properties at 550 East Swedesford Road in Wayne, PA, and 1000 Continental Drive in King of Prussia, PA. Five buildings owned by KBS in the Park Avenue at Morris County development in Florham Park, NJ were also honored. 100 Campus Drive received a Gold award, while 200, 300, 500, and 600 Campus Drive each received a Silver Wired Certification.

“Tenants are increasingly prioritizing tech capabilities when selecting new office space,” says Arie Barendrecht, co-founder and CEO of WiredScore. “Buildings that are unable to fulfill that need will be left behind, with the competition to attract high-quality tenants continuing to intensify. By pursuing Wired Certification for numerous buildings, KBS has demonstrated its strong commitment to connectivity and have further distinguished their portfolio of properties in a crowded marketplace.”
