Inked: PURE moving main campus; nearly vacant center getting tenants
The land bought by PURE Academy’s square footage is almost 155,000 square feet, about 3.55 acres, between Chelsea Avenue and Helsley Street. The previous building’s owner was the Memphis Academy of Health Sciences. (Courtesy the Office of State Comptroller Jason Mumpower)
PURE Academy’s new campus will have 10 times the school’s current capacity. Also, a building at the corner of Kirby Parkway and Winchester Road will be “activated” with some new tenants.
