WAYNE, Pa., March 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- INQ 400 at 400 Devon Park Drive in Wayne is under redevelopment and offers approximately 140,000 square feet of single-story GMP manufacturing and lab space. Zoned for all life science uses and in close proximity to Philadelphia's life science cluster, the building is available for lease and can accommodate "speed to market" requirements.
