Annenberg Investments Ltd and Farpoint Development have partnered to acquire 3450 Simmons Drive in Waycross, Georgia — a Class-A industrial property with a total building area of 217,500 square feet, set on 42 acres of land. The main building, constructed in 2004, features 202,500 square feet of warehouse space and 15,000 square feet of office space, and was built using concrete tilt wall construction with 50' x 50' column spacing. Moreover, the building is expandable, with knockout panels allowing for an additional 100,000 square feet of space. Located in Southeast Georgia, Waycross offers convenient regional access to markets in both North Florida and Coastal Georgia, including Jacksonville, Florida (1.5 hours), Brunswick, Georgia (1 hour), and Savannah, Georgia (2 hours), and the East Coast's largest and deepwater ocean ports. The property is situated ~1 mile from the largest CSX computerized rail yard on the East Coast, solidifying its status as the central hub for all rail traffic in the southeastern region. Six distinct CSX lines intersect in Waycross, providing unparalleled direct access to various areas within the southeastern United States. Eric Helfand, Principal at Farpoint shares, "Waycross sits at a premier key crossroads in the Southeastern United States, and is perfectly positioned as a hub for commerce, industry and transportation. Due to its valuable location, businesses can more effectively ship goods by rail, truck, or ocean freight. The region boasts robust economic development growth, with a diverse array of manufacturing, logistics, and distribution companies taking advantage of Waycross' strategic location and transportation infrastructure." David Cooper Annenberg, Partner at Annenberg Investments says, "Building upon our partnership with Farpoint Development, we are excited to continue the success story of what we achieved working together on a similar commercial property in Clinton, South Carolina. We are confident that this industrial facility in Waycross, Georgia will become a thriving industrial hub, attracting top tenants and setting the standard for excellence in the region." Thank you to Jason Rubenbauer, MBA at the Waycross-Ware County Development Authority, RRA Capital | CRE Bridge Lender, Aspen Funds, Daniel Rosenberg, and Logan Petersmeyer at BWE.
