It was really important to get the right developer on board. We wanted to work with a company that shared our vision and was prepared to stick with us for the long-term.
Opportunity Strategic infill locations with inherent land constraints and changing demographics often support conversions to higher and better uses including high-density housing, office and retail. Prologis recognized the site’s potential to support multi-family housing and pursued re-entitlement for high-density urban housing and office.
The property, owned by a local partnership, had been leased to the U.S. Postal Service for over 20 years. When the facility closed and the owners realized their exposure to extensive capital and releasing costs, the Prologis team negotiated an off-market purchase at a 30-percent discount to replacement cost.
Sometimes, companies have properties that they aren’t fully using or may not need. In this case, the owner of an older property with an active paper mill did not need a significant portion of the facility. Prologis approached the situation with an open mind, identifying issues and defining solutions without trying to squeeze the development approach into a preconceived template.
We retain ownership of the logistics parks we develop and build trusted relationships with landowners, municipalities and local communities to obtain the best possible outcome for everyone. Our enviable track record of bringing forward entitlements is underwritten by our financial strength and expertise.
