The physical assets are located in 19 major U.S. industrial markets, including Southern California, Dallas, Atlanta, Chicago, South Florida and New Jersey. Prologis will also acquire Duke\u2019s 7 million-square-foot development pipeline, which spans 1,228 acres and 17 million square feet of developable land. All the customers being newly onboarded and managed by Prologis will have access to the firm\u2019s proprietary Prologis Essentials service, which provides both supply chain and sustainability-related industrial and logistics solutions to tenants. Additionally, Prologis will integrate the assets <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/what-does-the-prologis-duke-deal-say-about-the-industrial-sector\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">into its Strategic Capital co-investment platform<\/a>, in addition to equipping the facilities with brand-standard amenities such as rooftop solar panels.<\/p>\n<p>Prologis CFO Tim Arndt further detailed\u00a0the scope of the purchase, telling <em>Commercial Property Executive, <\/em>&#8220;This is the largest acquisition we\u2019ve completed in the last seven years and the most strategic.

Morgan &amp; Stanley Co. and J.P. Morgan Securities, as well as Hogan Lovells US and Alston &amp; Bird LLP served the same roles respectively for Duke.
