Marketing description

Strong Market Fundamentals

While the overall ±51M SF North County industrial market remains healthy at a 5.5% vacancy rate, manufacturing industrial buildings have even a lower vacancy rate at 4.5%. Drilling down further into Carlsbad specifically, the Carlsbad industrial manufacturing vacancy rate is currently a low 4.6%.

Irreplaceable Coastal Location

Located in the heart of North County’s premier business park environment – the Carlsbad Research Center. Carlsbad boasts the largest concentration of credit tenants in North County due to its coastal location and superior quality of life. The building is surrounded by North County’s most recognizable companies such as Callaway Golf, Titleist, Taylor Made, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Novartis, Arrowhead Insurance, Mercedes Benz, Reef, Puma and ViaSat.

Located across from the 600,000 SF Thermo Fisher Scientific campus and other life science / medical device neighbors, the buildings offer tremendous reposition opportunities and flexibility given the diverse tenant demand and strong corporate neighbors within the CRC.

Easy access to Palomar Airport Road, Carlsbad’s largest east-west thoroughfare, which averages over 32,000 cars/day. The property is also located just 2.3 miles from Interstate 5 which provides access to all of Southern California.
