Principal Chris Garcia, SIOR, and Associate Grace McGuire of <strong>Lee &amp; Associates<\/strong>\u00a0will lead the leasing efforts at the property.<\/p>\n<p>Expected to open in 2023, the cross-dock warehouse will span approximately 65 acres and encompass 40-foot clear heights, 60-foot speed bays, a 185-foot depth concrete truck court, grade-level dock doors, ESFR sprinkler systems and high-efficiency LED lighting, as well as 652 parking lots and 231 trailer parking spaces.<\/p>\n<p>Located at 11500 Lawndale Lane N., the property will be less than a mile from Interstate 94, offering easy access to major distributors in the area, the city center and the Minneapolis \u2013 Saint Paul International Airport. Amazon, FedEx, Medline and King Solutions also have a presence in the area.<\/p>\n<p>The project is part of CRG\u2019s Cubes brand, set to deliver sustainable industrial properties across the country that fit the needs of a variety of businesses, including Fortune 500 companies. Last year, CRG broke ground on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/crg-starts-work-on-2-3-msf-industrial-park\/\">The Cubes at Fort Prince<\/a>, a 2.3 million-square-foot industrial park in Spartanburg, S.C.
