ATLANTA—Hillwood Investment Properties and Ridgeline Property Group (RPG) are joining forces on a massive distribution building in Braselton, GA. The industrial project will span nearly 1.1 million square feet in the Atlanta's I-85/Northeast submarket of Atlanta.

When completed, the industrial facility will offer the largest block of class A distribution space available in the Southeast US. The companies will break ground on Nov. 1 and the building should open its doors in the second quarter of 2015. Colliers Atlanta is marketing the asset for lease.

“The improving economy continues to create heightened demand for quality industrial space, and we believe this is an appropriate time to develop a big-box, modern distribution center in this location,” says Mike Gray, president of RPG. The distribution center site is less than one mile from the Interstate 85/Hwy 53 interchange in Braselton off State Route 124.
