“Embarking on this project in Lakeland reflects our commitment to innovation and excellence in industrial real estate development,” said Seth Wise, President of BBX Capital Real Estate and Chairman of BBX Logistics Properties. This development comes on the heels of our announcement of BBX Park in Delray Beach and builds on our strategy to invest in Class-A logistics facilities in strategic locations.”

BBX Park at Lakeland, located at 8255 State Road 33 N, Lakeland, FL 33809, is in what we believe is a highly desirable location directly north of I-4 and south of SR-33, offering both visibility and convenient access to major transportation arteries. With its prime location within 50 miles of both Tampa and Orlando, the park is poised to become a pivotal hub for logistics operations in Central Florida.

The initial phase of construction is expected to commence in the fourth quarter of 2024 with completion and occupancy anticipated in 2025. Leasing will be handled by Kris Courier, Senior Vice President of CBRE’s Industrial Services brokerage team based in Tampa.
