"We are very excited to start construction on the final phase of Bridge Point North," says Nick Siegel, VP at Bridge Development Partners. "The demand for state-of-the-art industrial spaces like this has truly grown in the Lake County area, and has already made this a highly successful project. As we begin developing the last available land on this site, we expect to welcome even more high-quality tenants looking to take advantage of our first-class facilities and the many opportunities in Chicagoland's thriving industrial market."

After acquiring the Bridge Point North campus in 2015, Bridge successfully transformed the once private property into a successful, Class-A industrial park through two separate development phases. Phase one, which is now 100% leased, consists of two buildings across nearly 1.03 million square feet and was delivered in 2017. Phase two, which features three buildings totaling 926,947 square feet, was completed earlier this year, and was approximately 70% leased when it was sold to a global real estate investment management firm. A report in RE Journals states that the property was sold to AEW.

The business park has attracted multiple high-quality tenants since its inception, including Amazon, Medline, Thermoflex and Bolke-Miller Corporation. Bridge has also brought several large institutional real estate investment management firms to the park through the sale of each of the first two phases.

Bridge Point North phase three is located 1.5 miles from the four-way interchange at I-94 and Illinois Route 137 and 30 minutes from O'Hare International Airport, and 35 minutes from Mitchell International Airport in Milwaukee.

Whit Heitman, Sam Badger, and Jared Paff with CBRE are the exclusive leasing agents on the project.
