Background The property is situated at the northeast corner of the I-35W and I-694 interchange with access from Round Lake Road and Gateway Boulevard. This property is commonly referred to as the Traverse Business Center site. At this property the applicant is proposing two (2) light industrial buildings. Building 1 is proposed at 200,140 square feet and building 2 is proposed at 25,600 square feet for a total of 225,740 square feet. It is the applicant’s vision that the larger of the two buildings would function as a multi-tenant structure with an average of 20% office and the remainder of the space used for manufacturing, production, retail sales and service, warehousing and other similar uses. The smaller of the two buildings would function in a very similar manner to the other building; however, this structure would be geared towards smaller production tenants with less office presence. Knowing that the property has great visibility and access to the interstate, it is the applicant’s hope that tenants looking for a variety of office, manufacturing and production, warehousing, showroom and retail space may locate in this development.
