The Boeing Co. is the latest defense contractor to lease space in Aberdeen as part of the federal government's base realignment and closure program.
Boeing leased 5,490 square feet of space from St. John Properties at the Government and Technology Enterprise project, a 413-acre business community under construction within the Aberdeen Proving Ground in Harford Co., and plans to move 25 employees to 6245 Guardian Gateway by fall.
The Chicago-based contractor is coming to Harford County to support the Command, Control, Computer, Communication, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) Command Operations, a 2.5 million-square-foot campus at Aberdeen Proving Ground that is expected to open in the third quarter of 2011. St. John's GATE project is the closest office and technology park to the new C4ISR facility.
