Written by Customer Service on . Posted in Mergers And Acquisitions.

Chicago, IL, Sept. 22, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Thor Equities Group, a global leader in urban real estate development, leasing and management, today announced the sale of North I-55, a portfolio comprised of two industrial facilities including a 33,000 square-foot truck terminal and an 8.5-acre container storage yard in the South Chicago submarket. Thor sold the asset for $20.2M after acquiring it for $11.25M in 2021.

Ideally located five miles from downtown Chicago, Thor acquired, refurbished, and fully leased the asset to Torpedo Expedited in under one year of ownership. Alongside Chicago’s Interstate-55, one of the city’s primary East/West expressways and under twenty minutes from the center of Chicago, the property offers users immediate access the primary corridor that serves the central United States.

“The sale of North I-55 proves the demand for well-located logistics assets is at an all-time high, and we are pleased to close on this successful transaction. Our conviction in the logistics sector remains strong and we have been diligently enhancing our current assets and adding to our global logistics portfolio,” said Chairman of Thor Equities Group, Joe Sitt. 

“I am thrilled with the momentum we are experiencing in our industrial platform and excited about our pipeline. We are expanding into new markets, developing and renovating facilities, and signing leases with some of the most recognized companies across the nation. 2023 has been an especially important year for us and I am looking forward to finishing out Q4 strong,” said Jack J. Sitt, Founder and Managing Director of Thor Logis, an affiliate of Thor Equities Group. 

Also in the Chicago area, Thor recently completed construction of an 108,471 square foot, Class A industrial development in the heart of the O’Hare submarket at 1211 Tower Road in Schaumburg, IL. Located thirty minutes from Chicago’s central business district and 15 minutes from O’Hare International Airport, the development is under a half mile from Meacham and the I-90 Interchange and less than two miles from I-290 and the I-90 four-way interchange.

Thor’s most recent activity in the industrial sector includes a set of new leases covering over 34,000 square feet at a portfolio of assets in Tampa, Florida.
