Merritt Properties Marks Full Occupancy at Imeson Landing Business Park

Merritt Properties has announced the successful leasing of all spaces in Phase Two of the Imeson Landing Business Park, adding to its footprint in Jacksonville, Florida. This achievement highlights the company's ongoing commitment to providing well-designed and flexible commercial spaces that cater to various business needs.

The business park currently features 24 tenants, with spaces ranging from 3,000 to 30,000 square feet. This diverse mix includes light manufacturers, government contractors, and distribution firms, all contributing to a vibrant business community within Jacksonville. As demand for modern industrial spaces continues to rise, Merritt Properties is set to launch Phase Three, which will introduce over 120,000 square feet of new industrial space.

Pat Franklin from Merritt Properties stated, “Reaching full occupancy at Imeson Landing Business Park is a testament to Jacksonville's robust business climate and the continual need for quality commercial facilities. Our objective has always been to create environments that support tenant success.”

Looking forward, plans are already in place for the construction of three additional light industrial buildings along Zoo Parkway as part of Phase Three development. These new buildings will range in size from 39,600 to 44,000 square feet, expanding the total space of Imeson Landing to approximately 393,000 square feet. Gary Swatko, also from Merritt Properties, emphasized how the park’s strategic layout has made it an attractive choice for businesses seeking versatile industrial environments.

For tenants like BluSky Restoration, the decision to move to Imeson Landing was straightforward. Curtis Gaskalla, the company's representative, said, “From our first interaction, I knew I wanted to work with Merritt Properties. They were quick, professional, and attentive throughout our leasing process.”

In addition to Imeson Landing, Merritt Properties has expanded its operations in Jacksonville. The company recently acquired a five-building industrial park located at 5022 Gate Parkway, now known as Merritt at Gate Parkway. This property encompasses 200,000 square feet, with leasing opportunities starting at 3,500 square feet. Merritt is actively enhancing the park’s infrastructure and adapting single-story office spaces into high-quality light industrial facilities.

Merritt Properties has been steadily increasing its portfolio in Jacksonville since entering the market in 2021 with the acquisition of Magnolia Park, a business park consisting of three buildings. Today, Merritt's presence in the region boasts over 500,000 square feet of commercial space, establishing itself as a vital player in Jacksonville’s commercial real estate landscape.

Since its inception in 1967, Merritt Properties has built a reputation as a leading full-service commercial real estate firm, managing over 21 million square feet of properties across the eastern United States. The company focuses on creating long-term partnerships and offers tailored services to meet the growing demands of its tenants.
