Distribution Realty Group Announces 338,520 SF Plainfield Spec Building

A joint-venture between Distribution Realty Group LLC and a private real estate fund advised by Crow Holdings Capital has announced its plans to develop a 338,520 square foot speculative industrial building at 9500 Bradford Road in Plainfield, Indiana, known as Plainfield Distribution Center.


The rear-load building will feature modern Class A characteristics including 32' clear ceiling heights, LED lighting, up to 74 dock doors, 67 on-site trailer stalls and the flexibility to secure the truck court for three separate tenants. The building is designed to appeal to high-end warehouse and logistics companies seeking best-in-class space in Indianapolis.


"We are pleased to commence construction of Plainfield Distribution Center within the AllPoints Midwest business park. From this location, our customers can take advantage of the nearby interstate access, FedEx Air Cargo Hub and UPS Regional Hub. The location, coupled with the low Hendricks County real estate taxes secured through a 10-year tax abatement, will provide exceptional advantages for logistics users," said Curran Darling, DRG's Senior Vice President of Acquisitions and Asset Management in the Midwest.


The venture has hired Brian Buschuk and Steve Schwegman of JLL to market the property for lease on its behalf. Arco Murray will construct the building.

The firm has acquired and developed over 2.66 million square feet of industrial and distribution facilities since its founding in 2013.
