Construction is underway on the Tampa Airport Logistics Center, a two-building class A industrial development spanning ±297,254 sq. ft. at 5450 Johns Rd. and 5416 W. Sligh Ave. in Tampa.

NorthPoint Development recently acquired the 19.21-acre parcel for the project. The new industrial complex is scheduled for delivery in fourth quarter 2021. WELBRO Building Corporation has been engaged as the general contractor.

The Tampa Airport Logistics Center is strategically situated with easy access to the Veteran’s Expressway (State Road 589), Dale Mabry Highway, and Interstate 275. Building 1 and Building 2 will be ±100,936 sq. ft. and ±196,318 sq. ft., respectively.

“Demand for industrial space over 50,000 square feet has remained consistently high near the airport for the past 14 years,” Avison Young Principals Clay Witherspoon said in a statement. “The lack of space and opportunities for new development due to land constraints previously forced larger users to seek space in other submarkets while still looking out for better positioned options. As such, we expect strong interest in Tampa Airport Logistics Center, considering its location and timing for completion.”
