August 26, 2020 at 3:13 pm

Marwest Enterprises, LLC (Marwest) is pleased to announce the groundbreaking for their new 525,000 square-foot Class A industrial development. Landing 3 is part of a multi-phase master planned industrial project at Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport.

Landing 3, located at 7827 E. Ray Road, is expected to serve tenants from 5,000 SF to 250,000 SF in the Southeast Valley.

"Congratulations to Marwest Enterprises on the groundbreaking of Landing 3. This brand-new project will join Landing at PMG and Landing 202, in the heart of the Gateway area and close to multiple freeways. An awesome location for a wide range of businesses," Mayor John Giles said. "It's exciting to watch southeast Mesa maintain its momentum as a thriving economic engine for the entire city."

Landing Phase III is within an opportunity zone, one of Phoenix's nearly 90 designated land areas that encourage long-term investments in low-income urban and rural communities with tax incentives for investors.

"The continued success of the Landing is not only an indication of the demand in the marketplace for Class A spec industrial space, but also a desire by businesses to be in the Gateway area," District 6 Councilmember Kevin Thompson said. "Adding Landing 3 to the existing 1 million square foot footprint is the perfect new addition to the area and region."

Marwest partnered on the project with a large institutional equity provider, and construction financing was provided by a regional bank. "We're excited to grow our relationship with Mesa and our existing partners at PMG," said David Martens, Principal with Marwest. "There is a tremendous amount of momentum in Mesa. We continue to see significant economic growth and sustained interest for these projects - we're very pleased to be there." Additional partners on the project include: CapMatrix LTD, who served as strategic capital markets advisor on the transaction; Ware Malcomb, architect; Willmeng Construction, general contractor; Hunter Engineering as the civil engineer; and leasing handled by the Wentis/Cosca team at CBRE.
