Events Raw Space

Lake City Distribution Center

Location: The level of accessibility at Lake City Distribution Center is attractive to both users and investors in the industrial space. The location allows for logistical efficiencies and access that other infill locations can't offer due to proximity to 3 major interstates and 4 different interstate exits. Additionally, the proximity to mega-projects like Gillem Logistics Center has only increased the demand from institutional-grade tenants and investors.

Project: The project consists of a 157,371 SF rear-load building situated on 13/8 usable acres. Features include 32' clear height, 54'W x 48.8'D columns, 60' speed bays, 200' depth, 185' truck court, 133 auto parking spaces, 42 dock doors, and ESFR system. There is 2,000 SF of office space available and the property is ready for immediate occupancy.

Why You Should Attend This Event

Why This Matters: 

On a national level, the industrial sector has been a great bet for the real estate investment and development community for the past several years. However while the sector has experienced a record-setting amount of development, the prognosis for the largest of deals has become a bit murkier in the wake of financing challenges. Despite increases in vacancy rates across key Sun Belt markets, the prevailing sentiment between investors and lenders point more towards a normalization than a downturn. This event will discuss prevailing development strategies for the next wave of projects, how investors are navigating the choppy financial markets to salvage transactions, and what the amount of supply that has entered the market means for future project pipelines and leasing conversations throughout the region. 

The Sun Belt continues to be the region that spurs investor confidence, as Atlanta, Charlotte, Raleigh and Nashville all place comfortably among the top 15 overall real estate prospects for 2024 according to PricewaterhouseCoopers. Hear how the most active firms are hedging bets and maintaining momentum in today's market. Bisnow covers the most pressing issues in the development and financing landscape to equip you and your firms in search of future deals. 

 

What You'll Learn: 

  • What trends are most prevalent among active projects to fit tenant need and demand? 
  • What product sizes are most necessary in today's environment?
  • How have investors with active deals been navigating the financial and lending landscape?
  • Where is the landing zone in the investment sales environment?
  • How are owners and brokers tackling the wave of supply from a leasing perspective?
  • What do future project pipelines project through 2024 and beyond in the Southeast?
