HUNTSVILLE – Triad Properties and Fairway Investments broke ground on the first building of Huntsville West Industrial Park, a 2 million-square-foot industrial park on Greenbrier Parkway in annexed Limestone County.
“Triad and Fairway are excited to begin construction on the first speculative warehouse for the overall Huntsville West Industrial Park,” said Fairway Development and Asset Manager, Connor Somerville during the live groundbreaking ceremony. “The distribution of goods purchased online and the population growth in North Alabama has driven up demand for large distribution centers.
“Huntsville West will provide brand new, best-in-class space for companies competing for shorter delivery times.”
The first building is a speculative, 385,000 square-foot facility with 32-foot minimum clear heights, 60-foot speeds bays, 84 truck docks, a 185-foot truck court with 60’ apron, space for 198 car parking spaces and 96 trailer parking spaces.
Fuller McClendon, principal at Triad Properties, said they are encouraged that leasing activity has been robust.
“We have already executed a lease with a 300,000 square foot manufacturing company for the Huntsville West Industrial Park. So, our architectural and engineering team have begun plans for our second building, which is slated to commence in December of this year,” he said.
