Note 2. Construction costs vary widely, depending upon the location, design, configuration, and condition of the premises.

The high figure represents the estimated cost of building out a "vanilla box" space and includes the cost of adding or upgrading the HVAC system, installing restrooms, constructing a fence, and installing turf.
