Trammell Crow Breaks Ground on 432,640 SF Distribution Center in Kansas City, Mo.

KANSAS CITY, MO. — Trammell Crow Co. (TCC), in partnership with Clarion Partners, has broken ground on a 432,640-square-foot distribution center on a speculative basis at the KCI Intermodal Business Centre. LogisticsCentre IV will consist of light manufacturing, warehouse and distribution space situated on approximately 26 acres. According to Trammell Crow, demand for industrial space in the Kansas City metro area continues to be driven by a strong automotive manufacturing commitment from General Motors Co. and Ford Motor Co., plus significant investments in rail intermodal facilities. The total cost of the development is projected to exceed $216 million. The project, which is slated for completion in March 2016, is located at the crossroads of I-29 and I-435.
