A JLL Capital Markets team led by Senior Managing Director Greg Brown, Director Samuel Godfrey and Associate Allie Black arranged the floating-rate, non-recourse loan through a bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The approximately 18.26-acre site at 9260 Mesa Linda St. provides immediate access to I-15 (the Barstow\/Mojave Freeway), which the developers note makes the property ideal for a buyer or tenant looking for a logistics or distribution hub in the region.

That building reportedly will deliver in late 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As of March, Mesa Linda Logistics Center was to feature 36-foot clear heights, 54 dock-high doors, 57 trailer parking stalls, 215 trailer parking spaces, ESFR sprinklers and 12,000 square feet of office and mezzanine space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Voit brokerage team handling the project\u2019s marketing, sales and leasing activities is being led by Ryan Lal, senior vice president, and Dante Borruso, vice president, both of Voit\u2019s Ontario office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1004751711\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/newcastle-partners-plans-inland-empire-project\/hesperia\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2025\/03\/Hesperia.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1247,600\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Hesperia\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Image came with the JLL Capital Markets release&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Mesa Linda Logistics Center is slated for delivery in the first quarter of 2026.
