DALLAS-In line with an early 2009 merger of their US operations, DB Schenker and BAX Global Inc. are breaking ground today on their second logistics’ campus in the country. The two-building, 202,000-sf project on ground-leased land at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport is pushing a $20-million development tab.

Pat Perot, president of Dallas-based Perot Development Co., has leased 18.34 acres, with the airport’s standard 40-year term, for the build-to-suit campus, which will be along Esters Boulevard in the airport’s 400-acre International Commerce Park. DB Schenker Dallas will consist of a 71,000-sf cross-dock with 78 front bays with dock-high doors, 24-foot clear height and a 120-foot clear span plus a 131,000-sf side-load structure with 30 dock-high doors and 32-foot clear height. “It will be a showplace,” Perot says.

“The Schenker deal is directly in line with the type of development and users that are complementary for the airport. It will make a fantastic statement for this park and the airport as well,” John Terrell, the airport’s vice president of commercial development, tells GlobeSt.com.
