Build-to-Suit Industrial and Office Development

Shell Oil Facility, Leetsdale Industrial Park

Chapman Properties has long been known for turnkey developement of industrial and office facilities built-to-suit to major tenant specfications. After acquiring Pennzoil-Quaker State, an existing Leetsdale Inustrial Park tenant, Shell Oil wanted to expand and centralize their regional lubricants distribution facility under one roof. A new 130,000 SF facility was designed and built-to-suit by Chapman to Shell’s specifications on a turnkey basis. The existing 70,000 SF lease was terminated, and Shell’s move to the new facility was accomplished in just nine months from initial lease negotiations.

Building 900, Leetsdale Industrial Park

Roughly half of Chapman’s Class A industrial buildings have been built speculatively. Completed in 2009, Leetsdale Industrial Park’s Building 900 is a 54,000 SF “Flex” building developed specifically to meet market demand for small footprint industrial, office, and R&D space. Providing unique flexibility for larger offices combined with warehousing and manufacturing space, and divisible to a minimum of 5,000 SF, this facility is well equipped to service a broad range of tenants with dock doors, drive-in ramps, and a 3/1,000 SF parking ratio.

Designed and constructed to meet LEED Core and Shell (2.0) certification, building 900 features a highly insulated envelope, efficient HVAC systems, a building length skylight that casts daylight into warehouse space, low flow water fixtures and use of recycled materials throughout its construction. Building 900 occupants enjoy stunning views of the Ohio River with an extensively landscaped pedestrian overlook, picnic area and access to public transportation.

Brownfield Site Redevelopment

16

Western Pennsylvania’s proud industrial heritage is being reinvented to compete in the modern marketplace. Playing an active role in this evolutionary process, Chapman Properties looks to utilize brownfield or similar prior industrial sites for development. Recycling of such blighted sites generates new development, building on existing infrastructure (including rail and river infrastructure) while conserving natural or open “greenfield” sites.

Chapman’s Leetsdale Industrial Park is a redevelopment of a 140-acre former steel fabrication site. Our newest project, Chapman Westport, utilizes a 300-acre prior strip mine site. Both projects are in the Pittsburgh metro region, with close ties to existing infrastructure and transportation networks.

The photo depicts the 45-ton barge crane at the Port of Leetsdale, a key component of the intermodal terminal operated within Leetsdale Industrial Park. Truck, rail and barge transport and cargo warehousing at the port is provided by a third party logistics operator. Chapman runs an internal railroad, delivering railcars twice daily from Norfolk Southern to our tenants. Leetsdale Industrial Park is also designated as a general purpose foreign trade zone. While primarily providing quality industrial space, our facilities also include mixed uses such as office, R&D, flex, hospitality and retail space. In addition, Chapman maintains close collaborative relationships with local and state economic development agencies and elected officials offering support for our customers’ business enterprises.

Property Management

Retaining our tenants and exceeding their expectations are Chapman Properties’ highest priorities. We develop, lease and manage our own properties exclusively, so our tenants only have to deal with one source for all issues. Chapman Properties does not manage outside accounts or properties, concentrating 100% on responding quickly and efficiently to our tenants’ needs.

Maintaining our developed facilities to the industry’s highest standards, Chapman Properties’ on-site managers, maintenance, and administrative staff solicit continuous feedback from our tenants to ensure timely responses and complete satisfaction.
