ATLANTA—Locally-based restaurant chain Chick-fil-A has signed a long-term lease to fully occupy a 111,252-square-foot building being developed by Lincoln Property Company Southeast at the Airport West Distribution Center here.
The new building will be located across the street from Chick-fil-A's corporate headquarters on Buffington Road. Chick-fill-A will take occupancy of the building after its completion in January 2015.
Denton Shamburger, vice president for Lincoln, represented the landlord, Morgan Stanley, in the lease and was the sole broker involved in the transaction.
The lease means Chick-fil-A will occupy approximately 85% of Airport West when the third building in the park is completed. Airport West currently features two buildings totaling 287,703 square feet, of which Chick-fil-A occupies 221,449 square feet.
“Airport West has been a great success story, and Denton has done an outstanding job of leasing this industrial park,” says Tony Bartlett, senior vice president at Lincoln who oversees the firm's Atlanta office. “Chick-fil-A is every owner's dream tenant, and we are proud to be able to call them one of our valued clients.”
