Current Project 2200 Iron Mills

The project comprises a 147,500 SF facility featuring a large-format shell warehouse, a potential build-to-suit office space and additional mezzanine, and 3.75 acres of yard area designed for outdoor storage and truck parking. The facility will be constructed using insulated concrete tilt-up panels and will feature 36’ clear ceiling heights. It will include an ESFR sprinkler system, a 1,600 amp electrical service, and a total of 23 dock and grade-level loading doors. The project also requires habitat restoration and enhancement works along the Creek, as well as offsite servicing for an emergency access lane.
