Ideally, that is both in the interest of the property beneficiaries and of the neighboring communities. However, some developments of this type are well suited to house community-friendly activities and essential services, so there can be exceptions based on property use.

Dallas Leads in Industrial Development as Construction Accelerates Nationally

Chicago industrial space is expected to be supplemented by an additional 25.9 million square feet — a considerable amount for the Midwest’s largest metro, despite supply here lagging slightly behind that in Indianapolis. Even accounting for possible delays, high square-footage projections still highlight the draw of key regional transportation hubs for retailers and other companies with growing logistical needs, while also pointing toward another record-setting year.

E-Commerce Growth Causes Industrial Development to Double in Last Decade

The market to deliver the second-most industrial real estate in 2021 was Chicago with 24 million square feet. This figure represents an eight-fold increase compared to its 2012 numbers. Notably, the Windy City also earned the top spot in deliveries in 2017, outpacing Dallas. The consistent increase in demand for new industrial space in Chicago can be primarily attributed to build-to-suit projects, as the metro solidified its status as the Midwest’s prime logistical, manufacturing and R&D hub.
