BUTNER, N.C. — Equus Capital Partners has acquired Falls Lake Commerce Center, a 341,867-square-foot industrial complex in Butner, approximately 20 miles south of Durham, for $46.8 million. The transaction was completed on behalf of Sweet Grass II, a programmatic joint venture between an affiliate of Equus and a U.S.-based public pension plan.
Falls Lake Commerce Center comprises three modern, tilt-wall logistics facilities developed between 2009 and 2015. The buildings feature 30-foot clear heights, ESFR sprinkler systems, shared truck courts, 53 dock-high doors and six drive-in doors.
