Arden Logistics Parks selects Stream Realty Partners for North Park 34 leasing assignment in Houston

Posted on by Mia Goulart

Philadelphia-based Arden Logistics Parks (ALP), Arden Group’s national logistics real estate operating platform, has awarded Stream Realty Partners a new leasing assignment for a 34-building business park located in Houston.

Stream, a national commercial real estate firm offering an integrated platform of services, will now oversee leasing activities for the recently rebranded North Park 34, an 865,000-square-foot industrial business park located on the northwest corner of the Beltway 8 and Hardy Toll Road intersection. Stream Houston Senior Vice President Boone Smith, Senior Associate Abraham Richardson, and Associate Meg Zschappel will serve as leasing agents. Analyst Jax Rawlinson will provide leasing support.

North Park 34 provides expedited access to Interstate 45, Interstate 69, and George Bush Intercontinental Airport. The business park offers an abundance of space layouts and configurations, with made-ready suites available for immediate occupancy. Suites at North Park 34 range in size from 1,500 square feet to 40,000 square feet. Grade level, semi-dock and dock-high loading configurations are available. The business park features on-site property management and is equipped with ample surface parking.

ALP acquired the asset in November 2021 and immediately began implementing institutional-quality capital upgrades to the building exteriors and tenant suites. Such improvements include a more traditional office/warehouse configuration, exterior painting of all 34 buildings, interior/exterior lighting package upgrades to energy-efficient LED fixtures, installation of drought tolerate landscaping to reduce water consumption, and full interior renovations to 21 vacant suites. The market response to these value-add improvements has resulted in the execution of 92 leases totaling 436,000 square feet in less than 24 months.

Bates Arnot will lead Stream Realty Partners’ central region industrial development services division in his elevated role as managing director.

In his new role, Arnot will continue sourcing development opportunities throughout Texas and Colorado and other markets in the region. Arnot will manage the Industrial Development Services platform’s largest team, continue to source new development talent, and contribute to Stream’s national IDS platform’s leadership and overall growth strategy.

Arnot originally came to Stream, a national commercial real estate firm offering an integrated platform of services, as a young industrial leasing broker in Dallas in 2009. Green, a fellow leasing broker at the time, took the initiative as Arnot’s professional mentor and business partner. The duo saw great success together. 

In 2013, Arnot left Stream to learn more about industrial development at Hillwood (a Perot Company), a multinational industrial, commercial, and residential real estate development company based in Dallas. While there, Arnot was responsible for leasing, land acquisitions, development, and property acquisitions in multiple markets, including DFW, Denver, Houston, Austin, and Memphis. He was involved with over 28 million square feet of leasing and 1,170 acres of land acquisitions, representing 14.5 million square feet of industrial development.

Armed with seven years of development experience at Hillwood, Arnot rejoined Stream in 2020 to help build its new Industrial Development Services platform. Since his return, the team has accumulated 10 current projects in the central region with a total cost basis of $1.1 billion. His most recent success was a start-to-finish development and forward-sale of a 300,000-square-foot industrial building to Westcore Properties executed earlier this year.
