Description/History

Mouser recently received the appropriate zoning to construct a 50,000 SF office building north of Mouser Way and south of House Rd.   They intend to relocate their customer service team to the new building.  This will allow them to continue to increase their IT, internet and marketing teams in the corporate HQ building.
