Baltimore, MD | June 16, 2015 –Atapco Properties, Inc. (Atapco) is pleased to announce construction of a new partially pre-leased, tilt-up industrial building  at its Steeplechase 95 International Business Park located in Prince George’s County, Maryland.  Construction on the 61,200 SF building will commence in July 2015 and is expected to be complete by Q2 2016.

16,200 square feet of the new Class-A 24 industrial building is pre-leased.  The remaining 45,000 SF spec space will feature a 130-foot truck court, 24-foot clear heights, and an ESFR sprinkler system. Ed Brady with Chesapeake Real Estate is actively marketing the 45,000 square foot space.

Steeplechase 95, strategically located off Exit 13 of the Capital Beltway in Capitol Heights, Maryland, is a multi-phased, 110-acre mixed-use business park consisting of one million square feet of flex, industrial and office space along with sixteen acres of retail space. Its convenient, centralized location provides close proximity to Washington, D.C., the Port of Baltimore and B.W.I. Airport.

Kevin McAndrews, President of Atapco Properties remarked, “This state-of-the-art industrial building complements our successful Steeplechase 95 Business Park. The park’s excellent access, convenient location, well-designed layout, and unmatched amenities have made it an extremely attractive option for industrial and flex users looking to expand or relocate to the Baltimore-Washington area.  These components, currently not found in other competitive projects, have been key to attracting such quality tenants as Rexel USA, HD Supply, Johnson Controls, and Restaurant Depot to Steeplechase 95.”
