In an exciting development for the industrial sector,
Provident Industrial, a branch of the Dallas-based Provident, has successfully completed the
Orangewood Commerce Center. This expansive
292,276 square foot Class A facility is strategically located at
6550 W Orangewood Avenue, in
Glendale, Arizona, a bustling area approximately
10 miles northwest of downtown Phoenix.
Scheduled for delivery in the third quarter of
2025, this impressive structure marks a significant milestone for Provident as it expands its footprint in the Phoenix market. Designed to cater to the evolving needs of modern industrial users, the facility boasts innovative features including:
- - A 36-foot clear height, ensuring ample vertical space for diverse operations.
- - A superflat slab designed to optimize the load-bearing capabilities, enhancing efficiency in storage and logistics.
- - 59 dock-high doors and four grade-level doors, providing seamless access for loading and unloading operations.
In addition to its impressive docking capabilities, the Orangewood Commerce Center includes a
2,500-square-foot speculative office and a
HVAC warehouse. The facility also features a
290-foot secured concrete truck court with
76 trailer parking stalls, promoting efficient traffic flow and security for logistics operations.
One of the key aspects of this development is its versatility.
Provident Industrial has designed the building to accommodate various configurations, ranging from
100,000 square feet to full-building occupancy. This flexibility positions the Orangewood Commerce Center as an attractive option for businesses seeking a tailor-made solution to their industrial needs.
The timing of this project coincides with a surge in demand for modern industrial space, particularly as the U.S. semiconductor sector experiences a renaissance. The Orangewood Commerce Center's proximity to
TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company) significantly enhances its appeal, positioning the facility as a vital partner for key suppliers essential to TSMC's operations.
Chris Martin, who spearheaded the project, expressed enthusiasm regarding the center's completion, stating, "As our first development in Phoenix, this project marks an exciting milestone for Providence. We’re proud to deliver a quality building in one of the strongest markets in the country." This optimism is echoed by
John Wrestler,
Cooper Fratt, and
Tanner Ferrandi from
CBRE, who are representing Provident in lease discussions, potentially attracting a range of tenants looking for state-of-the-art industrial facilities.
Provident has carved out a reputation over its
three decades of operation by demonstrating foresight and adaptability amidst ever-evolving market conditions. Their focus remains on creating exceptional risk-adjusted returns for investors through innovative development strategies. Since their inception in
1991, Provident has amassed an impressive portfolio, engaging in over
$6.0 billion worth of real estate projects nationwide.
As the industry pivots towards advancements in semiconductor technology and logistics, the Orangewood Commerce Center stands as a testament to Provident Industrial's commitment to growth and innovation. The center not only fulfills a pressing market demand but also aligns with broader trends in the U.S. industrial landscape, particularly concerning technological advancements and supply chain resilience.
In conclusion, the completion of the Orangewood Commerce Center not only signifies a leap forward for Provident Industrial but also brings enhanced capabilities and opportunities to the
Phoenix market. Businesses looking for modern, flexible, and strategically located industrial spaces will find that this new facility meets those needs remarkably well.
