Speed Bay Warehouse Solutions Acquires 488,936 SF Light Industrial Portfolio in the Northeast Corridor

Eight-building portfolio marks Speed Bay’s first acquisition in the Philadelphia / Southern New Jersey market as the firm continues to expand its shallow bay footprint in the Northeast region

PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Speed Bay Warehouse Solutions (“Speed Bay”), a vertically integrated real estate investment and operating platform focused exclusively on shallow bay, multi-tenant light industrial real estate, today announced the acquisition of The Philadelphia Interstate Portfolio, an eight-building, 488,936-square-foot small-bay industrial portfolio located across Burlington County, New Jersey, and East Montgomery and Delaware Counties in Pennsylvania. This acquisition, which marks Speed Bay’s first in both the Philadelphia / Southern New Jersey market and the broader Northeast region, advances the firm’s strategy to invest in small bay, multi-tenant industrial assets situated in high-demand, supply-constrained infill markets across the U.S.

The portfolio, which is currently 89.6% leased, is comprised of property vintages spanning from 1972 to 2004. Across 24 suites, the average unit size is 20,372 square feet. Combined with clear heights ranging from 17 to 33 feet and a mix of both dock-high and grade-level loading, the portfolio offers a highly functional product that meets the needs of a diverse group of tenants operating in a variety of industries including transportation, warehousing, manufacturing, health care/social assistance, arts, entertainment, recreation and more. Each asset offers near-immediate access to I-95, I-76, or I-295, providing connectivity not only to the Greater Philadelphia MSA, but also to the broader East Coast corridor.

“This acquisition represents an important step in our expansion within the Northeast, a region we have identified as a strategic priority for investment given its dense, infill markets and constrained new supply,” said Michael Moriarty, Head of Acquisitions at Speed Bay. “This portfolio’s seamless connectivity to the growing population density of the East Coast and various suite size options to meet a diverse tenant demand set ideally position these assets to effectively provide quality warehouse solutions that support the growth of small businesses in the region. We look forward to applying our hands-on operating approach to support our tenants’ critical business functions within these assets as we continue to grow our presence in the Philadelphia and Northeast markets.”
