Event Host
Overlook
In February 2024, APG Capital proudly announced the acquisition of “Overlook”, a 97,074-square-foot, four-story office building in Creekstone Park, Durham. Duke University has occupied 75% of the building since 2017, combining prestige and functionality.
The third floor of Overlook is being reimagined and repurposed for the Creekstone Event Center. An ideal location to host a BISNOW Raw Space Event, APG is working to transform the space into a multi-purpose special events venue.
Originally developed by Highwoods Properties, Overlook boasts a prime location adjacent to Research Triangle Park, at Page Road, with immediate access to I-40. Complimentary onsite parking will be available for all attendees at the March 19th BISNOW event.
