CRG announced Worldwide Flight Services (WFS), a global air cargo logistics leader and ground handling partner, has signed a full-building lease for The Cubes at ORD in Franklin Park, Illinois.
The 66,552-square-foot deal brings the industrial warehouse to 100% occupancy.
The Cubes at ORD is located immediately southeast of O’Hare International Airport at the intersection of Irving Park Road and Seymour Avenue. With direct access to Interstate 294 and only 1 mile to the South Cargo Area at O’Hare, the site offers unparalleled connectivity in one of Chicago’s most supply-constrained industrial submarkets. The recently completed facility features modern amenities including ESFR sprinkler systems, LED lighting, 20 exterior dock doors, two drive-in doors, 11 trailer storage spaces and parking for 70 vehicles.
The announcement builds on CRG’s momentum in Chicago, where the firm recently broke ground on The Cubes at Cicero, an 85,680-square-foot infill warehouse in west suburban Cicero, just 6 miles from Midway International Airport. It and The Cubes at ORD follow the successful delivery and full-building lease of The Cubes at Country Club Hills to Dart Container/SOLO Cup, reinforcing CRG’s position as a leading industrial developer in the region and nationally.
Avison Young Principals Brian Colson and Brian Pomorski represented CRG in the lease transaction. The tenant, WFS, was represented by Matt Mulvihill of CBRE. The Cubes at ORG was designed by CRG integrated partner Lamar Johnson Collaborative, while its parent company, Clayco, served as general contractor.
