Lehi's office market holds about 5.3 million square feet as of 2026, and roughly 4.5 million square feet of that, close to 86 percent, is rated Class A.
Panorama Point, at about 206,277 square feet, is among the largest office properties on the Lehi market.

Flying and washing in Lehi
These are the rules that shape a job here; we plan around them at the survey, not on site.
Controlled airspace here needs FAA authorization before launch; LAANC grants it in advance and it is filed as part of scheduling.
Provo Municipal Airport anchors the Class D airspace over the Utah County metro and Salt Lake City International's Class B airspace covers much of the valley to the north, and LAANC or air traffic control authorization is required inside either.
Utah preempts local drone regulation, so Lehi may not enact its own ordinance governing private drone use, and property owner permission still governs takeoff and landing.
Lehi City Code chapter 9-3 prohibits introducing into the municipal separate storm sewer system any discharge that is not composed entirely of storm water, except as described in the city's MS4 permit.
Lehi City's right of way encroachment permit form states that no encroachment permits are issued from December 1 to March 31, that the city is notified 24 hours before permitted work begins, and that a road closure plan is filed at least 24 hours ahead.
Flights stage from the client's own property with the owner's written consent; public parks and rights of way are not used as launch sites without a permit.
Rinse water is contained and recovered wherever the local storm-drain rule requires it, and the containment method is written into the proposal.
Any sidewalk or lane closure is permitted with the city before the job and its lead time is part of the schedule.
State-level drone law, licensing and the statewide season are on the Utah page. See also where drones need permits.
