Stockbridge JV Sells 1 MSF Outdoor Storage Portfolio

A joint venture between Stockbridge Capital Group and Dedeaux Properties has sold a 1 million-square-foot portfolio of Class A outdoor storage properties located around Southern California’s cities of San Bernardino and Rialto, in the Inland Empire.

The San Francisco and Los Angeles-based owners sold the three-building, 23-acre portfolio for an undisclosed amount to a buyer procured by JLL Capital Markets. The firm’s Senior Managing Director Mark Detmer, Senior Director Evan Moran and Director Chad Solomon lined up the buyer, while Executive Managing Directors Patrick Wood and Louis Tomaselli advised the owners around the market.

Stockbridge’s sale of the portfolio is its second industrial divestment in under a week. In late January, the firm sold Project RedHawk, a 1.7 million-square-foot, 49-building portfolio with properties in Arizona, Colorado, California and Florida.
