Major Industrial Property Transaction in Syracuse
Boston, MA (PRWEB) November 01, 2016 -- Hackman Capital Partners, LLC and Calare Properties, Inc. announced today the recent sale of MetroWest Industrial Center, a 567,800-square-foot, multi-tenant facility at 1200 State Fair Boulevard in Geddes, New York, a western suburb of Syracuse. The buyer, United Auto Supply, will use the high-bay portion of the facility to house their auto parts distribution business.
Brad Ruppel of CBRE National Partners represented the seller in the transaction, while Robert J. Krawiecki of RJK Real Estate Advisory represented United Auto Supply.
Based in Syracuse and family owned and operated since 1946, United Auto Supply manages 21 locations in New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania with more than 400 employees. The company sells exclusively to independent installers, new car dealers and auto parts stores.
The property, renamed as Ranalli Industrial Park, offers 31-foot clearance heights, extensive loading and trailer storage and a prime location, with frontage at the intersection of I-690 and I-90. The building is adjacent to CSX rail and also offers low-cost municipal power, serviced by the Village of Solvay.
With owner/user United Auto Supply and two other long-term tenants, who will remain in the building, the facility is now 100% occupied.
MetroWest Industrial Center was part of an approximately 11.38-million-square-foot industrial portfolio purchased in 2007 by a joint venture formed by Hackman Capital Partners, Calare Properties and KBS Real Estate Investment Trust. The bulk of that portfolio--23 buildings, totaling 7.4 million square feet—is located in the Northeast.
