ATLANTA—Construction is underway on Clayton Commerce Center, a 797,580-square-foot industrial facility in the Atlanta submarket of Ellenwood, GA. Hillwood, a Perot company, is developing the industrial project, which is less than one mile from the Interstate 675 and Anvil Block Road interchange.

“Clayton Commerce Center is Hillwood's first spec development in this market,” says Todd Parker, Hillwood's senior vice president and Southeast market leader. “After opening our Atlanta location last year, we have had great success in executing strategic acquisitions, including Gwinnett 316, and we are now beginning to expand further into this growing market. Atlanta's industrial activity is booming with new supply being met by consistent demand. We remain bullish on the region as we move through 2017.”

Clayton Commerce Center is four miles from Interstate 285, offering tenants fast access to the Hartsfield Jackson International Airport as well as the FedEx Ground and FedEx SmartPost Hubs. Clayton County, the only county in Metro Atlanta to be designated Tier 1 by the Georgia Department of Community Affairs, will offer potential tenants job tax credits and property tax reductions, which could represent substantial tax savings.
