The Raleigh/Washington, DC office of Duke Realty Corporation (Duke Realty), the leading domestic only, pure-play logistics property REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust) in the United States, announced that it is building Greenfield North 1201, a new, speculative, 165,921-square-foot bulk warehouse. Located in Garner just south of Raleigh, Greenfield North 1201 will be the eighth industrial building owned and operated by Duke Realty in Greenfield North Business Park. All of Duke Realty’s other buildings in the park are currently 100 percent leased. Construction on Greenfield North 1201 will begin immediately with completion scheduled for July 2020.

“Raleigh remains a strong industrial market for Duke Realty, and Greenfield North Business Park continues to be an attractive destination for businesses looking for high-quality warehouse/distribution space in a central location with superior highway access,” said Battista Orcino, Vice President of Leasing and Development for Duke Realty in Raleigh. “Since all of our Greenfield North properties are fully leased, we elected to start a speculative building so that we can be positioned to respond to clients with immediate space needs.”

Greenfield North Business Park is a master-planned industrial campus located at the interchange of I-40 and U.S. 70 and the proposed extension of I-540. The park, which is the only rail-served industrial park in the Raleigh area, is within minutes of downtown Raleigh, RDU International Airport and the I-440 Beltline. Leading companies in the park include Atlantic Tire Distributors, Crown Equipment Corporation, Mattress Firm, the North Carolina Department of Transportation, Mohawk, Butterball and Golden State Foods.

Located at 1201 North Greenfield Parkway, Greenfield North 1201 will feature 32′ clear height, 50′ x 50′ column spacing, 30 – 9′ x 10′ dock doors, two 12′ x 14′ drive-in doors, an ESFR fire protection system and 2,400-amp electrical service. Outside the building will be a 120′ truck court and parking for 96 trailers and 129 automobiles.

Duke Realty still has 10.87 acres available for development in Greenfield North Business Park that will support one building totaling approximately 136,400 square feet.
