An Oregon developer that helped transform the industrial market in Tucson is once again adding sought-after space for small and mid-size manufacturers and distributors.
Ten years after its first local investment, Schnitzer Properties is investing $73 million in two projects on the city’s south side.
The Drexel Commerce Center, near Drexel Road and Tucson Boulevard, will have 184,080 square feet in two buildings, and the Corona Commerce Center, south of Valencia Road and Tucson Boulevard, will be a 146,963-square-foot building.
Both will have flexible leasing options with spaces ranging from 6,700 square feet to 184,080 square feet.
“Schnitzer Properties watched Tucson for many years before buying our first project,” said Jordan Schnitzer, president and CEO.
He said the company has developed a strong relationship with local officials and commercial brokers, which is why he continues to invest in new buildings, such as the two new commerce centers.
