CENTERPOINT Properties, the investment arm of the California teachers' pension fund, has announced a 10-year lease agreement with International Warehouse Services (IWS) at 3423 McIntosh Road, Hollywood, Florida.
The location made it ideal for IWS, as the 16.7-acre site is adjacent to Port Everglades, a major container seaport in a high growth and consumer-rich population of long-term seasonal snow-bird residents, augmented with an inflow of resident pensioners.
The new IWS facility has direct access to the 43-acre intermodal container transfer facility, operated by Florida East Coast Railway, less than a mile from the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport.
Additionally, the warehouse is located inside Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ) No 25 at Port Everglades, allowing IWS to continue to realise improved cash flow and lower tariffs.
'I'm proud of the CenterPoint Development Team for not only staying on track the past seven months, but also for continuing to give our tenants the state-of-the-art logistics facilities they want and need,' said CenterPoint vice president Brian Hollings.
