With their lease of 343 Murray Hill Parkway, Axis Global Logistics will be able to service their growing client base in the New York City metropolitan market from one of the most accessible industrial markets in New Jersey.
Professionally managed by NAI James E. Hanson’s Property Management Group, 343 Murray Hill Parkway is a 53,361-square-foot single-story industrial building located just next to door to Meadowlands Sports Complex in East Rutherford. Along with its strategic location in the heart of the Meadowlands, the building also boasts tremendous access to Routes 3 and 17 as well as the Garden State Parkway, New Jersey Turnpike, and Interstate 80. Additionally, major transportation arteries such as Port Newark/Elizabeth, Newark Liberty International Airport, and the George Washington Bridge lie only miles away from the property. In addition to a highly sought-after location, 343 Murray Hill Parkway’s 16’-21’ ceiling heights, eight tailgates, three drive-ins, and 35+ trailer parking spaces make it ideally suited to logistics tenants like Axis Global.
“It is no secret at this point that the Meadowlands industrial market is among the region’s most competitive,” said Lundberg. “For both landlords and tenants, that high level of competition can add significant complexity to deals adding delays and cost overruns that most businesses cannot afford to absorb. However, our experience and market knowledge are tremendous assets for both sides of any transaction and enable us to ensure deals of any complexity are efficiently brought across the finish line.”
