PHOENIX—Trammell Crow Company and Prudential Real Estate Investors have announced an agreement to form a joint venture to develop a Class A, speculative office campus featuring two, two-story buildings totaling 210,000 square feet in Chandler. PREI is a business of Prudential Financial, Inc.

The project known as Mach One is located on 19 acres at the southeast corner of Loop 202 and Cooper Road near the Chandler Municipal Airport. The site has frontage along the Loop 202 freeway and Cooper Road and is directly adjacent to more than one million square feet of retail amenities. Construction is scheduled to commence in early 2015.

Jim Mahoney, senior managing director with Trammell Crow Company's Phoenix Business Unit, tells GlobeSt.com, “Chandler and Gilbert have a combined population of half a million and are two of the nation's fastest growing cities. Some of our largest employers are in that area and we've created a product that will serve those employers. It's within walking distance to 30 restaurants, banking and other amenities—we've checked all the boxes. We've designed this building with millennials in mind, which are very different from the boomers. They don't live to work; they work to live. We thought a lot about that as we designed this building—you will see features that are unique to the Phoenix market.”

Mach One will include two 105,000-square-foot office buildings featuring centrally loaded plates with chevron layout, 6.5 per 1,000 parking ratio, 16-foot floor-to-floor heights, and 12-foot finished ceiling capability. Tenants will enjoy a variety of amenities including covered parking areas, shaded outdoor seating, and large windows that provide abundant natural lighting. Each building will incorporate open workspaces and functional lobbies to provide seating and space for collaboration.

Butler Design Group will serve as lead architect, Willmeng Construction Company as the general contractor and Alliance Bank of Arizona is the lender. Bryan Taute and Charlie Von Arentschildt of CBRE Phoenix will handle leasing and marketing.
