HAZELWOOD, MO. — CBRE has pre-leased a total of 382,105 square feet of industrial space to four tenants at Aviator Business Park in Hazelwood, a suburb of St. Louis. The pre-leased space is part of the latest expansion to the 155-acre industrial park. Three new buildings are slated to open later this month and are now 60 percent pre-leased. The new tenants include Pretium Packaging, which leased 178,128 square feet in Aviator 6; Federal Moving and Storage, which leased 97,734 square feet in Aviator 6, Community Wholesale Tire, which will occupy 76,058 square feet in Aviator 2; and Rivian, which inked a lease for 30,185 square feet in Aviator 5.
Katie Haywood and John Frith of CBRE handled lease negotiations on behalf of the landlord and developer, California-based Panattoni Development Co. Inc. Kadean Construction is the general contractor. Panattoni purchased the Hazelwood Ford property in 2008 with plans to build Aviator Business Park. To date, the developer has completed six buildings that are fully occupied by tenants such as Graybar, International Foods and Weekends Only. Once the three new buildings are completed, the park will total more than 2.7 million square feet.
