LPC developed Phase I as a two-building speculative development, with the ability to rapidly combine into a single, larger building as market demand required. “Park 303 was one of the first industrial developments in the state to quickly convert two stand-alone buildings into one larger facility to meet the needs of a major single user,” LPC Desert West Senior Executive Vice President David Krumwiede said. “That flexibility — along with a premier location and high-tech, high-velocity e-commerce fulfillment capabilities — is what cemented our full-building lease. Our buyer recognized these advantages and moved quickly to secure the building and its significant long-term value.” Ed Lampitt, Mike Haenel, Andy Markham and Phil Haenel of Cushman and Wakefield represented Park 303’s Phase I tenant.

Loop 303 freeway, offering easy ingress and egress via two full-diamond freeway interchanges, and convenient access to a deep and skilled West Valley labor pool. Building amenities include 40-foot clear height and steel moment frame shear bracing that allows highly modern, automated racking and picking equipment. Other amenities include 25,000 square feet of Class A office and training space; large breakrooms; and upgraded, fully amenitized outdoor spaces with covered seating, a barbecue station and grass area for games and events. Employees also benefit from efficient LED lighting and more than 140 large clerestory glass windows, which provide access to sky views and shifting natural light, shown to increase productivity and mental focus.

Park 303 Phase I was originally developed as a 705,531-square-foot Building A and 488,995-square-foot Building B. To accommodate a major global user, LPC quickly combined the buildings into a single facility. The project sits within Glendale’s New Frontier District and is 1 mile from the Northern Parkway, a 12.5mile, high-capacity roadway providing rapid connection between the Loop 303 and U.S. 60/Grand Avenue. The connection offers expedited distribution routes and allows employees to avoid common rush hour traffic delays on Interstate 10. Corporate neighbors to Park 303 include Boeing, Microsoft, White Claw, XPO Logistics, UPS, REI, SubZero, Daimler-Benz, Red Bull, Ball Corporation and Aldi, as well as hundreds of new residential homes.
