Top 100: PROLOGIS SOLAR SOLUTION
 | |
Developers at ProLogis have done some of the year's biggest industrial deals, eg, the 218k-SF deal for Sanyo Logistics Corp. in ProLogis Park 55. The company resumed development activities in 3Q this year, but it's also working on a new initiative to install solar panels on existing and new buildings in its 18 worldwide markets, says First VP John Picchiotti, here with SVP Dave Riefe. They already have 7.2M-SF of solar panels on 20 buildings worldwide, generating enough power for 1,100 houses. (But perhaps our camera flash missed the memo.) | |

John, one of 26 Chicago employees, is focusing growth on pre-leased and build-to-suit development in the coming year. He tells us he's keen on personal relationships, even in a very organized global company. It pays off in his side endeavour: encouraging everyone to help children at the Catalyst Schools on the West Side for the holidays (call him for more info). |
