Smith Consulting Architects served as the project architect. The Allen Group is the developer of the project, with Harve Filuk, project manager, providing oversight. Being constructed in four phases, Kelly Corporate Center will encompass four office buildings located on the former Kelly Ranch.

Phase I comprises one two-story, 84,000-sf multi-tenant office building. Each building will feature painted concrete, expansive use of high-performance reflective green glazing, and granite stone accents. Phase II is currently under construction, with completion slated for early next year.

Because of the location of the development along Encinas Creek, with its riparian habitat, approvals and clearances were necessary from the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, the Army Corps of Engineers and the city of Carlsbad Planning Commission.
