The asset was Triten's first industrial project in the market.

Triten Real Estate has completed Connection Park Logistics Center, a 490,083-square-foot, Class A distribution center in San Antonio. The developer sold the newly constructed asset to Capstar Real Estate Advisors, according to Bexar County public records. The same source reveals that Prime Finance provided a $34.1 million acquisition loan. JLL brokered the sale on behalf of both parties.

The cross-dock industrial asset is at 6851 Cal Turner Drive and includes 36-foot clear heights, ESFR sprinkler systems, a 3,000-square-foot office component, 84 dock doors, four ramped doors, 253 vehicle parking spots, 95 trailer parking spots and an additional 3-acre area for storage and trailer parking.

The 32-acre Connection Park Logistics Center is close to Interstate 10, 11 miles from downtown San Antonio and within 15 miles of San Antonio International Airport. Nearby large industrial users include Amazon’s 4 million-square-foot fulfillment center, Tesla’s 440,000-square-foot manufacturing facility and Dollar General’s 1 million-square-foot distribution center.
