MESA, AZ – Close on the heels of its 250,000-square-foot “Building 109” groundbreaking, SkyBridge Arizona has started construction on a second 250,000-square-foot building, “Building 108.”
Together, the
buildings bring the active Class A industrial construction at SkyBridge Arizona
to a half-million square feet.

The developer joined on April 18 with Graycor Construction Company, CBRE - Phoenix and local dignitaries to kick off Building 108.
It is the
newest building to join the 435-acre mixed-use SkyBridge Arizona master plan,
which already includes 134,500 square feet of newly completed office, hangar
and aircraft bay space, constructed by Graycor and fully leased by CBRE.

"The ingenuity and quality of the SkyBridge development continues to enhance the East Valley for all involved," said Bridgette Peterson, Mayor for the Town of Gilbert and Chair of the Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport Authority.
"We appreciate the commitment of SkyBridge to Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport, celebrate this latest groundbreaking and look forward to the many benchmark celebrations to come."

“We have designed and are developing SkyBridge Arizona for the unique needs of those operating in the aviation, air cargo, e-commerce, manufacturing and defense sectors,” said Ariel Picker, President of SkyBridge Arizona and SkyPlus Development.
“The tenants who now occupy our SkyBridge buildings 106 and 107 are representative of those sectors. That is gratifying to watch come to fruition, and a positive indication of what lies ahead for this unique development.”

Like Building 109, Building 108 will offer 32’ clear height, a 7” reinforced slab on 4” AMC, 30 dock-high and six ground-level doors, and generous power and parking. The building is divisible, allowing it to serve a wide range of tenant types and sizes.
When complete,
SkyBridge Arizona will span 1.3 million square feet of aeronautical
development, almost 2.2 million square feet of non-aeronautical development and
270,000 square feet of commercial retail and office development.
“The product mix at SkyBridge Arizona is in line with the current demand trajectory of the Mesa Gateway submarket,” said Rusty Martin, Graycor Construction Company’s Southwest Division General Manager.

Arizona, Graycor has already completed an 82,500-square-foot, Class A hangar
building including office space and four bays to accommodate aircraft as large
as a G650 business jet.

It has also completed a 52,000-square-foot flex industrial building with 24’ clear height, storefront entries, administrative offices, conference and break areas, and a warehouse component with up to four docks. Both buildings are fully leased to Gulfstream and Top Aces.
SkyBridge
continues to pursue end-users with a focus on aeronautical and industrial
requirements, in conjunction with economic development teams from the City of
Mesa and State of Arizona.
