Transwestern Negotiates 47-Acre Ground Lease in Chicago Suburb

LEMONT, ILL. — Transwestern has negotiated a 47-acre ground lease for Chicago Truck Parking in Lemont, a suburb of Chicago. The multi-million deal is one of the largest parking leases ever in metro Chicago. The operator of parking lots for tractor-trailers and other commercial vehicles will occupy the space at 12300 New Ave. Located in the I-55 industrial corridor, the new parking lot will allow Chicago Truck Parking to consolidate multiple yards into a single location. The company will continue to operate its truck parking at Veterans Parkway and I-55 in Bolingbrook, Ill., but will consolidate its Archer Avenue and Route 83 location in Lemont at the new location. Terri Alexander of Transwestern represented the tenant in the eight-year lease. Tim McCahill and Brian Vanosky of Lee & Associates represented the landlord, Realterm Logistics.
