DALLAS-FORT WORTH, Aug. 23, 2023 – JLL has announced the latest addition to DFW Park 161’s tenant roster: LKQ, which has signed a lease for 523,260 s.f. at Logistics Center 12, situated within the 197-acre master-planned Class A industrial park.
Kurt Griffin and Nathan Orbin of JLL represented the landlord, Perot Development Company, and Jacob Bobek and Tim Vogds of CBRE represented the tenant, LKQ.
“Logistics Center 12 is the centerpiece of DFW Park 161, offering tenants the highest standards of construction quality in a Class A business park environment,” said Pat Perot, President and CEO at Perot Development Company. “We are excited to welcome LKQ to our growing list of investment-grade tenants, which includes industry leaders like Amazon, Pitney Bowes, and Life Science Logistics.”
DFW Park 161’s strategic location within the bustling DFW Metroplex places tenants in close proximity to key facilities such as DFW Airport, regional FedEx and UPS hubs, and major freeways. The advantages extend further, with the Freeport Inventory Tax Exemption and supplementary tax incentives on international inventory contributing to a favorable business atmosphere by reducing or eliminating customs duties, tariffs, and taxes. With notable features such as 707,940 s.f. of divisible space, a 40-foot clear height, 570-foot building depth, 60-foot loading bays, and 190-foot truck courts, DFW Park 161 caters to the multifaceted needs of its tenants.
“We are excited to add another quality tenant to DFW Park 161,” said Griffin, Managing Director at JLL Dallas. “Our leasing velocity remains exceptional, with only 184,680 s.f. left for lease in Logistics Center 12, where we’re already observing strong interest.”
“The unparalleled location of DFW Park 161 offers tenants access to a best-in-class labor pool, top-notch logistics, and an array of amenities that set it apart from the competition,” added Orbin, Managing Director at JLL Dallas.
DFW Park 161 is a joint venture between Perot Development Company and Invesco Real Estate. They have enlisted Peinado Construction as the project’s contractor, while Hallf Associates are the architects behind the project.
