Newmark announces that CT Realty and Clarion Partners, LLC have broken ground on South Bay Logistics Center, a Class A, state-of-the-art industrial facility, in Carson, California.
Newmark’s Managing Director Danny Williams, Executive Managing Director Barry Hill and Vice Chairman John McMillan are the listing agents for the project.
“CT Realty is excited to be partnering with Clarion Partners, LLC on this rare, infill LA industrial development project.,” said Chris Coetzee, Senior Vice President of CT Realty. “The combination of the project’s proximity to the Ports of LA/Long Beach and the ability to service nearly 15 million people within a 50-mile radius will draw significant interest from logistics and e-commerce companies.”
The single-tenant, free-standing building, located at 333 W. Gardena Boulevard, encompasses 145,840 square feet of industrial space including 25 dock high positions, 36-foot clear height, a 144-foot secure truck yard, an ESFR K-25 Sprinkler System, 5,500 square feet of modern two-story office space and an abundance of parking. Construction is set to be completed in the fall of 2021.
Located near five major freeways and in the center of the South Bay, the project is well-positioned to provide direct access to seven million people within a one-hour delivery window and is strategically located in proximity to the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, Los Angeles International Airport, Downtown Los Angeles, and Ontario International Airport.
According to Newmark Research, Los Angeles’ industrial vacancy rate has remained below three percent, the tightest in the nation, for 35 consecutive quarters. Activity roared back to life in the second half of the 2020, with 4.3 million square feet in net absorption gains. E-commerce (and 3PLs supporting them) will be at the forefront of tenant demand in 2021; new construction will remain scarce and highly sought after, pushing the Greater LA market’s overall rents to new highs.
