“We’re thrilled to sign this lease with North Signal at 1000 Imeson Park Boulevard, as this facility will allow us to significantly expand our operations in Jacksonville and better serve our customers there. The 1000 Imeson Park Boulevard facility is across the street from our existing RoadOne operations which offered us important efficiencies. We look forward to a long and prosperous relationship with North Signal as we continue to expand our transloading footprint across the nation” said Ken Kellaway, CEO, RoadOne.
“We are very excited to be in our new facility at 1000 Imeson Park Boulevard which expanded our Jacksonville footprint to three facilities and now over 800,000 sq ft of warehouse & transload space. We looked at many facilities to find the right fit for our customer, and it was great how everything worked out allowing us to secure this brand-new, state of the art, facility in the perfect location. It was a pleasure to work the North Signal Capital team throughout this process and hopefully we can work with them on the next facility expansion in the near future!” said Chris Sloope, VP of Operations in Jacksonville for RoadOne.
As a result of the lease, 100% of the 422,136 SF rentable area is fully leased at 1000 Imeson Park Boulevard. The Class A facility is designed and built to the highest institutional standards including tilt-up concrete construction, 36-foot clear height, ESFR sprinkler systems, and LED lighting. The facility contains 216 auto parks,180 trailer parks and two drive-in doors. RoadOne is now making further investments in the building via significant tenant improvements. Those improvements include: adding dock levelers to every dock-high door (81 total); fencing around the entire site; installing a guard shack and constructing a 100,000 SF climate-controlled section within the premises with all the associated structural improvements. It is anticipated that the tenant improvements will be complete by late summer / early fall 2024. In the meantime, RoadOne is operating in the warehouse.
“We are thrilled to support RoadOne is they continue to build out their world-class logistics platform and help power the economic engine of Jacksonville. We hope to be able to work with RoadOne on other projects in the months and years ahead.” said Peter Goulding, Partner, North Signal Capital
“1000 Imeson Park Boulevard is a great example of the type of building most in demand right now in Jacksonville right now: Class-A; in-fill, located in close proximity to the port with exceptional access to the major highways and containing ample parking. While RoadOne took the whole building, this building was designed to easily service the needs of four tenants and that optionality was quite helpful during the lease-up period. Given the proximity to their existing operations across the street I expect RoadOne to call 1000 Imeson Park Boulevard their home for many years to come” said Luke Pope, Executive Managing Director, JLL.
The Joint Venture was represented by Luke Pope, Executive Managing Director at JLL.
