Louisville’s Multifamily Market Proves It’s Better to Arrive Late than Never

by John Nelson November 6, 2017

Sometimes there are benefits to being late to the party. Louisville, having lagged behind larger surrounding cities in multifamily development post-recession, is now experiencing a boom in apartment construction, much of which is being supplied by out-of-state developers. For similar reasons, including Louisville’s sustained economic growth fueled by continued strength as an international distribution center alongside a stable manufacturing base, national investor demand for Louisville multifamily properties has intensified. Traditionally known for the Kentucky Derby and the bourbon industry, Louisville is now raising eyebrows with a growing population, robust job growth and balanced multifamily supply and demand. Big Business, Jobs At the heart of this burgeoning story is UPS Worldport, the primary global air hub for the world’s largest package delivery company. UPS, the largest private employer in Kentucky, continues to expand its presence in Louisville, having recently announced a $310 million expansion of its Centennial hub sorting facility. Ford Motor also recently announced that it is investing $900 million in its Kentucky Truck Plant, in addition to the $1.3 billion and 2,000 jobs created at that plant in late 2015 to build Ford Super Duty trucks. Additionally, Qingdao Haier Co., having acquired Louisville-based GE Appliances in June 2016, announced …

Logistics Consultant: Role of Air, Rail Transit Expands in Industrial Market

by Taylor Williams November 6, 2017

HOUSTON — As the growth of e-commerce continues, its impacts on logistics and operations within the industrial real estate sector become more significant. Recent data from supply chain consulting firm Tompkins projects that by 2020, the value of America’s cross-border e-commerce sales will be approximately $486 billion. In addition, the value of cross-border purchases via e-commerce will total about $140 billion. To meet the e-commerce demand, industrial developers will have to supply about 160 new logistics facilities spanning 800,000 square feet in top urban markets, according to Tompkins. Another 100 or so facilities in the 75,000- to 100,000-square-foot range will need to be repurposed to support delivery to secondary and tertiary markets. Distributors in the e-commerce era have long since learned to compress their supply chains and look for logistical opportunities to save on “last-mile” expenses. To that end, industrial operators are increasingly looking to air and rail transit as distribution channels. Steve Schellenberg, vice president of business development for IMS Worldwide Inc., a logistics consulting firm for the industrial real estate sector, discussed the rise of intermodal transit during the InterFace Houston Industrial conference on Oct. 31. Approximately 115 industrial real estate professionals attended the event, which was held …
