CenterPoint Properties Announces Acquisition of Port-Proximate Seattle Facility
Oak Brook, IL (PRWEB) November 01, 2013 -- CenterPoint Properties proudly announces the acquisition of a 39,739 SF operations center and truck maintenance facility on six acres located at 4500 West Marginal Way, Seattle, WA. Matt McGregor and Bill Condon of Colliers International represented CenterPoint in the transaction.
The facility, currently leased to Evergreen Trails, Inc., is located within close proximity to the Port of Seattle, Seattle’s Central Business District and both the BNSF and UP Seattle Intermodal facilities, offering the potential for future port-related operations such as container storage or transload capabilities.
IG-1 Industrial zoning is flexible and allows for both transportation and storage uses. The property features: 15 maintenance and three storage drive-in-bays, four cranes, 133 car and 110 bus parking spaces, secured facility and lot, fueling station and a bus washing station.
“As the city continues to grow south, the existing industrial base is being redeveloped into alternative uses, reducing the overall port-proximate square footage available to industrial clients,” remarked Chad Vande Zande, Senior Vice President Investments of CenterPoint Properties. “The acquisition of the 4500 West Marginal Way facility compliments our national expansion initiative to locate in competitive markets, accommodating port-related customers with strategically located and highly functional facilities.”
