Acquisitions / Dispositions
ACQUISITION: Sagard Real Estate acquired 2851 Alvarado Street in San Leandro, CA, a fully leased 2.02-acre industrial outdoor storage (IOS) asset improved with a 14,905 SF warehouse. The acquisition was completed through Sagard’s recently launched IOS joint venture with La Caisse and reflects the partnership’s continued focus on supply-constrained infill and seaport-oriented markets. Strategically positioned along the I-880 corridor near the Port of Oakland and Oakland International Airport, the property benefits from strong tenant demand, low vacancy, and long-term mark-to-market upside in the East Bay industrial market.

The 31-acre site features industrial waterfront access, approximately 2,000 feet of bulkhead frontage, and a 69,732 SF crane-served building positioned within a key Port of Houston corridor. Marble plans to enhance the property’s dedicated outdoor storage capabilities, further expanding its diversified investment footprint across specialized industrial assets.
ACQUISITION: A 10.47-acre industrial outdoor storage (IOS) site in Austin, TX has traded as investor interest in Central Texas IOS assets continues to expand beyond the urban core. The property is positioned within a high-growth corridor benefiting from converging infrastructure investment, population growth, and increasing logistics demand across the Texas Triangle.
