UNIVERSITY PARK, ILL. — Clayco Inc. has completed construction of a Georgia-Pacific distribution facility at Gateway 57 Industrial Park in University Park, about 38 miles south of Chicago. The 1 million-square-foot facility is a joint venture between CRG and Venture One along with design-build firm Clayco and its subsidiary Forum Studio. The investment will allow Georgia-Pacific to expand capabilities in University Park, where the company previously operated out of a 700,000-square-foot facility.

The building features 36-foot clear heights, 100 dock doors and two drive-in doors.
