Orsett Properties, LTD has submitted a rezoning request and project proposal to the City of Mesa to build two industrial office buildings in the Ray Road Commerce Center North near PHX-Mesa Gateway Airport. (AZBEX, March 6)
Each of the two office buildings is planned to be 32.7KSF. Each building will have its own yard behind it, complete with truck wells. Both will be set up to accommodate both warehouse and office use.
One of the buildings will be used for Identico Print Services, a toner manufacturing company originally based out of Chandler. According to the project proposal, the architects anticipate Identico Print Services will use 21KSF of the building — 75 percent of the total square footage. The company may expand to the rest of the building in the future, but the current plan is that the remaining 11KSF will be used as spec space to be rented out. The other building will also be spec and rented out to tenants. Because the buildings will be built on separate lots, the owner is able to more easily sell the second if needed.
