Each location is strategically situated within a large industrial pocket in their respective submarkets, offering functionality and convenient access to major highways.

“Alterra IOS continues to lean into the Atlanta MSA and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. The region has a lot of the ingredients we look for in a market, including a pro-business climate that is continually ranked near the top nationally by Site Selection Magazine, home to 19+ Fortune 500 Headquarters and the busiest airport in the world, continued investment in local and regional infrastructure, and proximity to the fastest growing port in North America in Savannah, GA,” said Charlie Totten, Senior Vice President, Alterra IOS. “All of these things create an environment conducive for aggregating a functional IOS portfolio.”

0 Liberty Industrial Park in McDonough, Georgia is currently under construction with an expected delivery timeline of Q4, 2024. The final product will be two Class A IOS facilities of 20,000 and 6,000 square feet on 12.5 usable acres collectively. The site offers quick access to I-75 and will have three separate entrances to facilitate convenient entry for multiple users.

2620 Campbell Boulevard in Ellenwood, Georgia is an existing Class A facility with a 24,500 square-foot maintenance shop and office spanning 10.5 paved acres. This irreplaceable IOS asset is zoned Heavy Industrial and located in the densely populated I-675 corridor with many of the blue-chip logistics and transportation tenants.

498 Tuggle Greer Drive in Buford, Georgia is a 5.3-acre site with multi-directional access via 1-985 and I-85. The entirety of the site is paved and includes approximately 39,000 square feet of warehouse and office space.
