St. John Properties, Inc. has signed a 50,800 square foot lease with a Fortune 50 company at 4735 Arcadia Drive, a 112,000 square foot high-bay warehouse building contained within Arcadia Business Park in Frederick, Maryland. Danny Foit, Leasing Representative for St. John Properties represented the landlord, and Tyler Rowland, Toby Mink, and Luke Wilson of CBRE represented the client in this leasing transaction.
In 2018, St. John Properties broke ground on 200,000 square feet of flex/R&D and high-bay warehouse space at Arcadia Business Park, representing Phase I of a development plan that will support a total of 600,000 square feet of space. The 61-acre business community is located at MD Route 85 (Buckeystown Pike) and Arcadia Drive, and currently features two single-story flex/R&D buildings totaling approximately 82,000 square feet of space in addition to the 112,000 square foot warehouse building.
4735 Arcadia Drive features 32-foot minimum clear ceiling heights, 50 by 52-foot column spacing, and skylights. Suite sizes start at 10,400 square feet of space. The rear of the building has dock and drive-in loading with a 130-foot deep single-loaded truck court, and is surrounded by a free surface parking lot.
“The building’s large bay sizes, ceiling heights and floorplate flexibility were designed to meet the diverse needs of end-users engaged in logistics, manufacturing and warehouse operations, and interest and leasing activity has surpassed our expectations,”explained Matt Holbrook, Regional Partner Virginia and Central Maryland for St. John Properties. “The business park’s presence near several major population centers has been a significant factor in this activity.”
