PS Business Parks, Inc. Acquires 543,000 Square Foot Multi-Tenant Industrial Park in Southern California

GLENDALE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–PS Business Parks, Inc.

The Park consists of ten buildings totaling 543,000 square feet situated on 27 acres of land and is 100% occupied with suites ranging from 5,000 to 288,000 square feet.

The Park is located in a prime last-mile location in the heart of the Los Angeles Mid-Counties submarket with access to strong demographics of over 6 million people within a 15-mile radius.

Combining the Park with the Company’s existing parks creates a Los Angeles industrial portfolio totaling 2.2 million square feet.
