Seagis Hires Transwestern to Fill Distro Center

MIAMI—In Florida, it seems where you find Seagis you find Transwestern. The commercial real estate broker’s South Florida office just expanded its relationship with Seagis Property Group.

Seagis awarded Transwestern the exclusive leasing assignment for its newly acquired asset, Doral@25th, a 340,000-square-foot class A office and industrial distribution center. Transwestern managing directors Walter Byrd and Ben Eisenberg, along with senior vice president Thomas Kresse and associate Carlos Gaviria, are overseeing the property.

Transwestern begins with a challenge: the asset should be completely vacant come June 1. Doral@25th is located in Airport West at 10000 NW 25th Street, about 3.4 miles from the Miami International Air Cargo entrance.

“We are targeting users who can take advantage of the property's unique attributes including its location, size, cross dock design, ceiling height, class A office space and frontage on NW 25th Street,” Eisenberg tells GlobeSt.com. “Within the South Florida market there are less than a handful of assets comparable to Doral@25th.”

Eisenberg expects strong interest in the property from companies that already have a footprint in the state and who want to enter the market sector. The facility was built for the requirements of today's modern logistics customer, featuring 283,500 square feet of class A, 30-foot to 32-foot clear cross-docked warehouse space, as well as 56,500 square feet of two-story class A office build out. The building also provides 54 dock height loading doors, ESFR sprinklers, back-up generators, T-5 lighting, totally secured loading courts, and parking for over 425 autos, as well as more than 100 trailers.

“The Doral market has been and continues to be the desired location for those companies who move goods through Miami International Airport and the Port of Miami,” Eisenberg says. “With a vacancy rate in Miami's airport industrial market of 7.8%, this remains one of the strongest industrial markets in the United States. This property promises to be highly sought after by the largest and most important companies in Miami's industrial market.”
