Hillwood to Develop 797,580 SF Distribution Center in Metro Atlanta

ELLENWOOD, GA. — Hillwood plans to build Clayton Commerce Center, a 797,580-square-foot distribution center located near Interstate 675 in Ellenwood, about nine miles east of Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. The facility will be Hillwood’s first metro Atlanta project built on a speculative basis. The property will include 36-foot clear heights, an ESFR sprinkler system, cross-dock configuration, 231 trailer storage spaces and 442 parking spaces for automobiles. Clayton County is the only county in metro Atlanta to be designated Tier 1 by the Georgia Department of Community Affairs, and Hillwood’s development is expected to offer potential tenants job tax credits and property tax reductions. Hillwood has selected Reliant Real Estate Partners to lease Clayton Commerce Center, which is expected to come on line in December.
