The 125,300-square-foot industrial property, situated on the southside of the city off of I-95 at Baymeadows Rd. and Southside Blvd., is currently vacant. Petroleum Containment will relocate from its 30,000-square-foot Downtown site.
“We have seen a dynamic industrial market in the first half of 2013 as users continue to acquire excellent buildings below replacement costs,” said Mr Gatling, first vice president, who also represented the seller, COFE Properties Fund 1, in the disposition with colleague Bryan Bartlett. In early June, Messrs. Gatling and Bartlett represented the fund in its sale of a warehouse/flex facility at 8813 Western Way.
