I heard that OFS will be shortly moving out of its 25F Paterson Road Campus? Does anyone know where that would be if this is true?

The property is just too valuable to use for a low-profit operation (in contrast to housing.)

"Shortly" is not likely but "within a few years" is probably correct. They were going to move some years ago but extended their lease. It is now expiring in 2012, I have heard (haven't validated this directly). No idea where they are moving to.

ISS is right next door but still seems to have a lease and hasn't announced any intentions of moving.

Well the high school is getting renovated over this summer (they are changing the layout) I heard they were sending in the bulldozers the last day of school so that must be quite an extensive renovation there. so I doubt they will be moving out soon, probably in a few years... I don't really know.
nice to meet you all and cheers!!
