Barings, one of the world’s largest diversified real estate investment managers, and Trinity Capital, a Charlotte-based commercial real estate development firm, announced today that they have commenced construction on Phase II of Horizon 16 Industrial Park, a joint venture logistics park in Savannah, GA. Phase II will focus on six buildings across 1.5 million square feet of Class-A industrial space designed to meet the needs of regional, national, and international distributors, manufacturers, and logistics firms.

“We are pleased to expand our relationship with Trinity Capital and together capitalize on Savannah’s favorable long-term industrial fundamentals, which support construction near strategic infrastructure,” said Maureen Joyce, Barings’ Head of US Real Estate Equity.

Horizon 16 Industrial Park is strategically positioned on Jimmy Deloach Parkway and Interstate 16, and remains one of the last developable land parcels that can accommodate bulk distribution within 15 miles of the Port of Savannah, which offers access to major East Coast markets. Phase II will build on Barings’ successful completion of Phase I, which spans 1.1 million square feet across three buildings and is 74% leased to notable tenants like Ferguson and Harbor Freight.

“We’re honored to continue our partnership with Barings as we enter a new market,” said Jordan Quinn, Partner, Industrial at Trinity Capital. “This dynamic project further solidifies our commitment to developing high-quality industrial space in key growth markets across the East Coast.”

The project highlights the ongoing partnership between Barings and Trinity Capital, who together developed 85 Exchange, a 1.3 million square foot industrial park located outside of Charlotte, North Carolina with notable tenants at the park including Amazon.

CBRE’s William Lattimore is handling leasing duties for Horizon 16. Evans is serving as the Park’s general contractor and Atlas is the architect.
