The property is also located across the street from Founders Park, where the USC Gamecocks baseball team plays home games.

 

“We’re excited to expand our portfolio to the University of South Carolina market. With steady enrollment growth over the last 10 years, accelerating in recent years, there is an increased demand for elevated student housing,” said Brandt Stiles, Founding Partner, Subtext.

 

“USC is one of those quintessential college towns, and we have crafted this VERVE community within the context of the local environment—rich in history and tradition, but reimagined for the Gen Z audience.”

New State-of-the-Art Industrial Development Set to Revolutionize Logistics in Jacksonville, FL

Carlos Villanueva

Jacksonville, FL,  July 1, 2024 – A brand-new industrial development is poised to set a new standard for the rapidly growing Jacksonville, Florida market. The Keyes Company is exclusively marketing the project, which can accommodate a two-story distribution center as large as 1 million square feet – a first for the market.

 

Keyes Commercial Vice President Carlos Villanueva represents Bachelor Properties, the developer of the build-to-suit project at 514 Addor Lane. Bachelor Properties and affiliated companies have a four-decade track record for developing large-scale projects in numerous states.




As a one-story building, the distribution center would span over 500,000 square feet. Exterior construction is expected to be completed between 14 and 18 months after the lease is finalized.

 

"We are thrilled to introduce this state-of-the-art distribution center to Jacksonville," Villanueva said. "With its strategic location, modern amenities and customizable features, we believe it will catalyze growth and innovation in the region's bustling logistics sector."

 

Located strategically off I-10 and Hammond Road, this modern facility promises to redefine efficiency and convenience for regional businesses. The project is just minutes from Downtown Jacksonville and from Jax Port and Jacksonville International Airport.

 

Only 5 miles away are the CSX Intermodal and Norfolk Southern rail terminals. The property has a proposed rail spur connecting to the adjacent CSX rail line.




 Situated near established giants like Publix and Michael's Distribution Centers, the new facility boasts a sleek and modern design with a versatile floor plan tailored to businesses' diverse needs across industries. With 40-foot-high ceilings providing a spacious feel and ample parking for both tenants and visitors, the center prioritizes comfort and accessibility.

 

One of the facility's standout features is its cutting-edge security system, which ensures the safety of goods and personnel around the clock. Moreover, the center will have energy-efficient and eco-friendly features, aligning with sustainable practices and reducing environmental impact.

 

Flexibility is essential at the new distribution center, with customizable space options to suit every business's unique requirement. Additionally, tenants can choose from refrigerated and freezer space as part of the buildout, catering to various logistical needs.
