SAVANNAH - Transwestern Development Company (TDC) and its joint venture partner Transwestern Investment Group (TIG), on behalf of a separately managed account, has acquired 30.65 acres in the Effingham County submarket of Savannah with plans to develop two Class A industrial warehouse buildings totaling 528,560 square feet.
“Transwestern is pleased to enter Savannah’s industrial market with the development of Buildings 5 and 6 at North Gate Industrial Park,” said Jack Chapman, Partner at TDC. “Located 10 miles from the nation’s 3rd busiest seaport, the project will offer modern warehouse space solutions in a first-class business park setting.”
The project will include a 240,560-square-foot rear-load building and a 288,000-square-foot front-load building, each designed with 36-foot clear heights, ESFR systems, dock-high doors, multiple points of ingress and egress, and 2,500 square foot office suites. Both buildings will provide ample car parking and on-site trailer storage.
“The Savannah industrial market has more than doubled in size over the past five years, supported by robust demand,” said Chris Sterling, Director of Acquisitions at TIG. “With demand for modern port-proximate product outpacing current supply, and with the sharp pullback of new starts, this site positions us well to deliver space occupiers are actively seeking.”
The property provides direct access to GA-21, I-95, and I-16, offering efficient drayage routes from the Garden City Terminal at the Port of Savannah. It sits within the Old Augusta Road corridor, less than one mile from the traffic light intersection of GA-21 and Old Augusta Road.
Construction is scheduled to commence in December 2025, with shell completion expected by year-end 2026. The project team consists of The Conlan Company, Randall-Paulson Architects, and Kern & Co. JLL will provide leasing services.
