Avison Young and Fountainhead Commercial announce sale of 436,534-sf industrial manufacturing campus in Broomfield, CO

Denver, CO – Avison Young and Fountainhead Commercial are pleased to announce the sale of 2555 W. Midway Boulevard, a R&D/manufacturing property situated within Atlas Industrial Park in Broomfield, CO. Strategically located in the heart of the Boulder–US Highway 36 corridor, the property consists of a highly specialized multi-level, multi-building campus with excess land.

Rick Egitto, CCIM, Principal with Avison Young, and Justin Rayburn, Principal with Fountainhead Commercial represented the seller, Mile High Labs. The all-cash buyers, ScanlanKemparBard and its partner, Cerberus Capital Management, have plans for redeveloping the property, and were self-represented.

Operated for years as a round-the-clock pharmaceutical Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) manufacturing facility, the property, situated on just under 21 acres, is comprised of a two-building, 436,534-square-foot pharmaceutical/industrial campus. The main building, totaling 411,034 square feet, is primarily comprised of office, manufacturing processing, packaging, laboratory and climate-controlled warehouse areas. The second floor includes general engineering and office areas, laboratory areas and an employee cafeteria that is accessed via a sky bridge over the roof of the building. The second 25,500-sf building is comprised of laboratory and office areas. Lastly, the collective buildings feature nearly 12,000 amps of power.

Dixon Hinderaker, Vice President of Acquisitions with ScanlanKemparBard said, “We found the location of the property along US Highway 36 very attractive. Located equidistant to Boulder and Denver, the property allows prospective tenants the ability to leverage a highly skilled labor pool. Furthermore, the property features specialized attributes of climate-controlled warehouses, significant power, clear heights up to 38 feet, and the ability to accommodate outside storage space for prospective tenants. We are excited to bring a new chapter to the site”

The Denver industrial market continues to see solid investor and tenant demand even as the industrial vacancy rate temporarily hovering around 8% due to a significant amount of large bays warehouse recently having been delivered into the market,” said Egitto. “This asset provides the new ownership with the opportunity to capitalize on a strategic location for mid-market tenants seeking to serve the Boulder/Broomfield/Denver markets most immediately, and the entire metro area more broadly”.
