“Demand for high-quality, strategically-located industrial space remains fierce throughout South Florida,” said Eisenberg, Executive Managing Director at Transwestern. “We are focused on helping our clients find and execute on opportunities that optimize the value of their real estate by leveraging deep local knowledge, strong relationships and Transwestern’s industry-leading research and analytics platform.”
