Chicago’s strong industrial market

Alex Olshansky, principal & head of Investments, Zenith IOS, told Commercial Property Executive that institutional industrial investors continue to be drawn by the unique factors driving demand in the Chicagoland market, such as its strategic central location, a strong and diversified manufacturing and population base, and most importantly its irreplaceable position as the most rail and freight-advantaged logistics market in the country.

“Given its position as one of the largest and most dynamic industrial markets in the country, Chicago is well-positioned to continue to attract interest from both corporate users and value-oriented investors,” Olshansky said.

Stream Executive Managing Director and Partner Patrick Russo, Portfolio Manager Mustafa Ali and Associate Ben Harrison facilitated the acquisition.

CBRE’s Capital Markets Advisors, which include Ryan Bain, Michael Caprile, Zach Graham, Judd Welliver, Bentley Smith, Joe Horrigan, and Victoria Gomez, along with local brokers Whit Heitman, Sam Badger, Larry Goldwasser and Terry Grapenthin, also assisted in the transaction.

Stream currently manages a portfolio of 41 investments totaling 23.2 million square feet and approximately $2 billion of equity across five commingled funds, several joint venture vehicles and wholly owned assets.
