SkySong, The ASU Scottsdale Innovation Center, has seen another wave of new leasing activity in the past few weeks, totaling more than 18,000 square feet. 

This new wave of activity comes on the heel of the announcement of transactions totaling nearly 40,000 square feet of new leases and expansions, and the signing of a large lease by the Arizona Builders Alliance in late summer.
