Newmark Completes Three New Lease Transactions at Denver’s Enterprise Business Center

May 10, 2022 11:30 AM

Newmark announces it has recently completed three leases totaling more than 275,000 square feet at United Properties' Enterprise Business Center, a 1.95 million-square-foot Class A industrial park in Denver, Colorado. Newmark Executive Managing Director Mike Wafer, SIOR, Director Michael Wafer, Jr. and Director Mike Viehmann serve as exclusive leasing advisors for the property and represented Minneapolis-based United Properties in the transactions.

The recent leasing transactions completed by Newmark are as follows:

  • Priority Wire & Cable renewed its 115,829-square-foot lease. The tenant was represented by Cody Sheesley and Ted Dickey of Colliers.
  • Elliott Electric Supply signed a new 81,731-square-foot lease. The company was represented by Viehmann with Newmark.
  • Dealer Tire renewed its 80,782-square-foot lease, with representation from Matt Burton and Mike Statter of Cresa.

"On behalf of United Properties, we are pleased to renew leases with Dealer Tire and Priority Wire & Cable, and to welcome Elliott Electric Supply to the park," said Wafer, Sr. "Denver's industrial market is very strong, so we are happy to help these tenants find or maintain suitable warehouse/distribution space in an extremely tight market."

All three deals were completed in Building 5 of the park, located at 10000-10700 East 40th Avenue in Denver. Building 5 is part of the seven-building Enterprise Business Center, a 1.95 million-square-foot Class A industrial project located in Denver's most successful master-planned, mixed-use development. Other users in the park include FedEx, Swire Coca-Cola, Breakthru Beverage and Reddy Ice.

Enterprise Business Park features an exceptional location 15 minutes from both Downtown Denver and Denver International Airport (DIA). The property offers immediate access to I-70, as well as proximity to I-270, I-225 and I-25. The park is proximate to 2.4 million square feet of retail space and amenities, more than 7,000 residential units and over 900 acres of parks and open space.

According to Newmark Research, following Denver's historic 2021 figures, the city's industrial market exhibited moderated expansion in the first quarter of 2022, with an absorption of 1.1 million square feet. Market-wide absorption was up 44.4% year-over-year. Much of this expansion was attributed to sustained activity in the e-commerce, and food and beverage industries. Vacancy was 6.0%, down from 6.2% the previous quarter and 6.8% in the first quarter of 2021.
