Odyssey Logistics & Technology Corporation has broken ground on the construction of a new 121,680 sqf metals transload facility in Joliet, Illinois. The new facility will be located on a 17 acre site in the CenterPoint Intermodal Center. The new scheme features ten docks, six drive-through doors, 16 trailer positions, nearly 6,000 square feet of office space, 51 car parking spots, and reinforced slab floors. The center will be operated by Odyssey’s subsidiary CMI Logistics LLC. Dan Leahy and Adam Roth of NAI Hiffman represented CenterPoint in the transaction. Construction is expected to be completed by the early second quarter of 2017.
“The location of CIC-Joliet/LPC provides direct access to the BNSF intermodal rail yards and the interstate system,” said Brian McKiernan, senior vice president of development, CenterPoint. “Developing a build-to-suit facility for CMI and offering heavy overweight shipping options is ideal for their growing operations.”
