The company has tapped C&amp;W to oversee leasing at Southern Gateway.\u00a0<em>\u201cThe development site offers a prime opportunity for PNK Group to make a strong entrance into the Atlanta market. It\u2019s located near Interstate 75, the preferred access route to the Port of Savannah and the Port of Brunswick, in one of the oldest and most established submarkets for big-box development,\u201d<\/em> Pat Murphy, managing director with Cushman &amp; Wakefield, said in a prepared statement.<\/p>\n<p>PNK started on\u00a0Southern Gateway with the construction of a 1.1 million-square-foot distribution facility; ground broke on the building in September. The developer is undaunted by the notion of going spec on a large facility. Murphy noted, <em>\u201cThe City of McDonough has been very attractive to major industrial users including Tory Burch, Wayfair, Scotts, Home Depot and Ghirardelli.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<h2><strong>HOTLANTA<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s not just the City of McDonough that\u2019s attractive to leading industrial users; the Atlanta area in general is high on tenants\u2019 radar. The proof is in the numbers. Atlanta recorded record-breaking net absorption of 6.4 million in the first quarter of 2017, and another 6.3 million in the second quarter, according to a C&amp;W report. Not even all-time-high construction completions&#8211;9.7 million square feet of industrial product delivered in the first half&#8211;dampened the sky-high absorption figures.<\/p>\n<p>PNK isn\u2019t alone in its bid to capitalize on strong demand in the metropolitan Atlanta industrial market.
