Secure a powerfully connected point of operations near Central North Carolina with unmatched corridor access and move-in-ready quality by leasing at 1526 S Brightleaf Boulevard. 1526 S Brightleaf Boulevard is the perfect solution for manufacturing or heavy equipment and yard-oriented distribution users. The 93,753-square-foot warehouse virtually has a cross-dock configuration but with oversized drive-in doors on both sides of the facility, as well as recessed loading docks. One of the marquee advantages of this facility is its fully fenced and gated perimeter with 1.8 acres of concrete yard for industrial outdoor storage (IOS) and trailer parking, a rare feature and crucial component for high-volume operators. Underscoring its institutional capabilities, Caterpillar Logistics Inc. most recently utilized this facility for deliveries and vehicle storage.
