"We're excited and proud of this project, though timing was a little tough, having started development last summer," Anthony Pricco, Bridge principal, tells GlobeSt.com. "Obviously the market has softened, but we're still optimistic and smaller users still seem to be fairly active. If anyone is active in this market, it seems to be those smaller users, and that's what we're really focused on."

The firm has already developed two other business parks in Woodridge, and is targeting users seeking between 10,000 to 264,000 square feet to occupy its new project. Both of the new buildings will be constructed of precast concrete, and feature eight drive-in doors, an abundance of exterior glass and 30-foot clear ceilings. The larger building was planned to offer 24 exterior docks, expandable to 48, while the smaller will offer 16 exterior docks, expandable to 26.

"This was a nice undeveloped parcel that had been there for a while, and the reason it hadn't been developed was because there were a lot of things that needed to be figured out with it," Pricco says. "It was unincorporated DuPage County before so we needed to get it annexed, which takes time. Woodridge has been great to work with, and we had a lot of coordination with DuPage County."
