Here is a NJ.com piece on it:
. . . .The company placed the hexagonal-shaped main building and less than half of its 1,000-acre corporate campus on the market in October 2013, listing it with real estate company Cushman & Wakefield. Merck retained a smaller office building and about 550 acres at routes 22 and 523 near Route 78.
Since then, Merck also listed its Summit facility, consolidating operations at its Kenilworth site. . . .
In late 2012 Merck announced that it would move its global headquarters from Readington.
The main building is a five-story granite and glass structure with a five-acre courtyard. It includes a 900-seat dining area overlooking the courtyard, a 250-seat auditorium, a full fitness center and 35,000-square-foot data center.
The corporate campus includes a 17,000-square-foot childcare center, a solar "farm," basketball and tennis courts, a ball field and a helipad. . . .
As my recent (2015) bylines repeatedly suggest, Merck now uses the legacy Schering-Plough HQ in Kenilworth as its home. The Kenilworth property was, about five years ago, now -- also on the market. But that selloff plan was abandoned. Overall. . . most encouraging! Onward.
