Jackson-Shaw is launching another speculative warehouse building at Jacksonville International Tradeport in North Jacksonville.
The Dallas-based developer submitted plans for a 93,600-square-foot flexible-use building at the business park at southwest Interstate 95 and Airport Road.
Company President and CEO Michele Wheeler said Jackson-Shaw is developing the building because of “strong demand in Jacksonville” and “to address growing tenant leasing needs.”
She said construction on the warehouse, called International Distribution Center 5, will begin in June and be completed in January.
Wheeler said Haskew Company & Associates Inc. is the general contractor and Cushman & Wakefield is the broker. AVA Engineers Inc. is the civil engineer.
Plans show 83,600 square feet of warehouse space and 10,000 square feet for offices.
“The building offers access to superior amenities, high visibility, great transportation access to I-95 and 295 in Jacksonville International Tradeport, a well-established business park adjacent to Jacksonville International Airport,” she said in an emailed statement.
Wheeler said it will be Jackson-Shaw’s eighth building in Jacksonville.
Meanwhile, J&J New Kings Road LLC applied to the city to build its proposed 373,650-square-foot warehouse distribution center in Northwest Jacksonville at a construction cost of $12 million.

J&J New Kings Road LLC is led by Seattle-based Lake Washington Partners. Kimley-Horn and Associates Inc. is the civil engineer. ATA/Beilharz Architects of Cincinnati is the architect.
