The property, built in 1981, provides the new tenancy with nearly 60,000 square feet of industrial distribution space and almost 55,000 square feet of retail showroom space. Property features include 12’ to 20’ clear height, dock-high and grade loading, a 4:1000 parking ratio, trailer parking and sprinkler systems.
