96,954 SF | Light Industrial Buildings | Chandler, Arizona

The air-park’s six structures range in size from 11,187-22,874 square feet with grade level loading and exterior storage yards, which tenants can choose to lease or buy. Interior highlights include warehouse ceilings of 18’ and higher, and 600-amp power supply to suit various tenant needs. The lack of similar options in the area played a key role in terms of site selection, with developers noting that the completed project will give Chandler and East Valley residents new job opportunities much closer to home, shortening commutes and improving quality of life for many. Originally designed by Butler Design Group, the project was purchased by Silagi Development and executed by Cawley Architects and LGE Design Build.
