  • Bergen-Passaic, NJ (1888PressRelease) August 01, 2014 - AEW is partnering in the development on behalf of AEW Partners VII, L.P., an opportunistic real estate fund. The property is being marketed to prospective tenants by Jules Nissim and Marc Petrella of Cushman & Wakefield.

    The facility will feature 36-feet of clear height, 66 car parking spaces and 59 trailer parking spaces. Upon completion in February 2015, it will be fully operational with energy-efficient lighting, 35,000-lb dock levelers and office space to accommodate immediate occupancy.

    "Investing in northern New Jersey is consistent with our strategy of developing modern facilities in strategic logistics markets," said Douglas A. Kiersey, Jr., president of Dermody Properties. "Exit 8A provides quick access to the ports, greater New York and the entire Tri-State Area. It is perfectly situated in this highly sought-after market."

    Located in the heart of the New Jersey Turnpike Exit 8A market, LogistiCenter Exit 8A is ideal for companies that require efficient distribution to the northeastern United States. Given its central location on the New Jersey Turnpike, this market serves as a processing, sorting and distribution hub for many products imported through the Port of New York and New Jersey. Exit 8A's proximity to this port and its status as a midpoint of the highly populated corridor between Boston and Washington D.C. have made it the premier warehouse and distribution hub in the Northeast. Currently more than 70 million square feet of industrial warehouse, distribution and manufacturing space is housed at Exit 8A.

    "The Exit 8A market is a key regional distribution market in the Northeast," said Gene Preston, partner, Dermody Properties East Region Office. "Our goal is always to provide the best possible facilities for our customers, and this location helps us do just that. So we are pleased to be breaking ground on this facility."

    Mayor Gambatese, Deputy Mayor Chris Killmurray and Township Manager Bernard Hvozdovic celebrated the groundbreaking with Dermody Properties and AEW.
