“The buyer plans to occupy a portion of the vacant space, lease out approximately 75,000-square-feet and hold for the long term,” Swanson said. “Additionally, the buyer saw this as a unique opportunity to purchase a large freeway frontage site in an amazing location, next to South Coast Collection.”
Located at 1683 Sunflower Ave., the property is approximately 345,000-square-feet on 16 acres, with 1,340 feet of freeway frontage. The property was sold in an “off-market” transaction, which, according to Bruggeman, meant that Lee & Associates was able to track the property over time and position their client to get control of the deal.
Robinson Pharma, the major tenant at the property, occupies 232,000-square-feet of corporate office, warehouse and distribution space. The remainder of the building, approximately 112,000-square-feet of warehouse space, is currently vacant.
