	Condition:	This building was constructed in 1984. It has been well maintained and is in very good physical condition. The quality of construction appears above average. It is located in a good industrial area with frontage on, but no access to, Interstate Highway 95 and U.S. Highway 64 Bypass. There appears to be little physical deterioration in the building, however, in consideration of the short-lived items of roof and mechanical fixtures accrued depreciation is estimated at 5% of reproduction cost new. There appears to be no functional or economic obsolescence.
