Nashville
There is a new plan for a new warehouse park in Nashville. This comes after Penattoni
Development Co. paid $1.93 million for a piece of land totaling to 44 acres in Brick
Church Pike. The new warehouse will be 600,000 square foot and construction for the
project dubbed Skyline Distribution Park is expected to begin this month. It will consist
of three buildings with completion expected in 2016.
According to Jeff Konieczny, a development manager for the company’s Southeast
region, the industrial park will address a deficit of modern warehouse space. He also
pointed out that the city is losing a number of its industrial base due to the redevelopment
agendas. The benefits of the new facility will be enhanced visibility and access to the
highways.
Alston Construction, an integrated contractor arm of Panattoni, will construct the three
warehouses. The warehouses at Skyline Distribution Park will consist of 100,000,
125,000, and 375,000 square feet. The leasing
agent is JLL with Bo Fulk, a vice president for the commercial real estate company,
alongside Jimmy Armstead. According to Fulk, Skyline Distribution Park is excellently
positioned to serve Nashville, Tennessee and the entire region.
Penattoni Development Co. is one of the most active players within Nashville,
Tennesseewith regional offices located in the city. Recently, the property developer
completed a 1.1 million square foot of an Under Armour warehouse construction in Mt.
Juliet. The company is also finishing the development of 98,000 square foot five-story
building on Nashville Music Row. SESAC, the S. Performing rights organization, will be
the anchor tenant.
