COLUMBUS, OH – The Pizzuti Companies have broken ground on a 183,479 square foot speculative warehouse at 2099 Stelzer Road, to be known as Gateway East Industrial. The warehouse will be developed on a 12-acre site with immediate access to Interstate-670 and John Glenn International Airport.
This building is currently one of only two available speculative industrial sites located inside the Interstate-270 loop. The strength of the market has driven large build-to-suit projects in this area, including FedEx, New Era Technology, America’s Floor Source, and the Intel Chip Plant in New Albany, Ohio.
“Available land within the 270-loop is incredibly scarce, and we continue to witness the growing demand in our maturing market,” said Joel Pizzuti, President and Chief Executive Officer of The Pizzuti Companies. “We are excited to provide industrial space in such a prime location for a variety of potential users.”
Designed to accommodate single or multi-tenant users, the state-of-the-art building provides great flexibility to modern logistics; featuring 36-foot clear heights, up to 20 dock doors, 115 car parking spaces, and a 10-year 75% tax abatement.
“Gateway East’s unbeatable location speaks for itself, but what we’re really excited about is attracting a wide variety of modern industrial users through thoughtful design,” said Shawn McGorry, Vice President of Development for The Pizzuti Companies. “The building is equipped with plenty of dock doors, flexible bay spacing, efficient clear height, and perhaps most importantly – more immediate power capacity compared to a lot of recent speculative buildings. We are seeing this become a huge differentiator for tenants in today’s marketplace.”
Pizzuti’s developments span the United States as far west as Phoenix, across the Midwest, and throughout the southeast, with offices in Columbus, Chicago, Nashville, and Orlando. Their client list includes various industry leaders, such as Whirlpool Corporation, PetSmart, Home Depot, DHL, Walmart, Goodyear, Nationwide and Caterpillar.
