May 6, 2020 – We are pleased to announce that – with the assistance of commercial real estate firm Trout Daniel & Associates (TD&A) – we have recently leased 133,520 square feet of our 692,492-square foot manufacturing and distribution center at 1954 Halethorpe Farms Road to Barker Steel Mid-Atlantic. Jared Engel and Steve Cornblatt of Trout Daniel & Associates represented Blue Ocean in the transaction and Toby Mink of CBRE represented Barker Steel Mid-Atlantic. You can read the official press release here.
Located off I-95 and I-695 between Washington, DC and Baltimore, MD, the property’s heavy infrastructure, high clear height, and broad column spacing create the ideal space for businesses like Barker Steel Mid-Atlantic that involve large block manufacturing, as well as other distribution uses.
Purchased in 2015 by Blue Ocean, the property is historically significant, in that it was used at one-time to manufacture aircraft components for the Allies’ efforts in World War II. After making improvements to the distribution center, Blue Ocean implemented a creative leasing program that highlights their in-house, “hands-on”‘ management approach.
Jonathan Ehrenfeld, President and CEO of Blue Ocean states, “We work to create exceptional value wherever possible – to our tenants, team members, and partners. In this case, we were fortunate to have been able to deliver a compelling package for Barker Steel that checked all of their boxes. Their presence will enhance an already diverse and vibrant environment at our Halethorpe industrial complex.”
