It all starts with an idea

Sometimes, we get so focused on helping our customers expand their operations under the expansive Butler Manufacturing Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings that we have to step back and create the necessary infrastructure outside as well. This new parking lot spans over 4 acres of asphalt, providing space for approximately 400 cars and room for product staging. It also features separate lanes for truck and automobile traffic, ensuring safety and efficiency. Designed with the future in mind, this project was completed while safeguarding the long-term campus development plan and keeping current operations running smoothly.

𝐌𝐑𝐀 𝐢𝐬 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐘𝐨𝐮 As we emerge from the darkness of winter into a very welcome and early spring, I am reminded of a common biblical verse: “the Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away.” As the gray skies part and the sun peeks out, it’s not just daffodils poking through the ground that we see, but orange construction barrels. Just recently, the Michigan Department of Transportation commenced a major renovation of I-496 in Lansing, which will be a significant inconvenience for the next couple of years. Your MRA team members are currently navigating back roads that are scattered with potholes to report for in-person duty at our world headquarters in Lansing. Many of our members know this feeling. In fact, our local roads are in worse shape than our interstates, so they need attention the most. But when a local township or city decides to tear up a downtown artery or fix an important intersection, it can have a devastating impact on nearby retailers. Over the years, I’ve talked with many of our members who have muddled (or suffered) through construction right in front of their store that lasts forever. “We’re open” signs and Facebook posts notifying customers about alternative routes can only do so much. Pulling from Persian origins is another timely proverb: “this too shall pass.” Eventually, the construction will end, and the improved infrastructure will benefit the community. While the team at MRA may not be able to eliminate construction affecting your store, if there is other government red tape you’re dealing with, do not hesitate to reach out to askusfirst@retailers.com. We’ll roll up our sleeves and get to work for you. William J. Hallan President and CEO Michigan Retailers Association

In New Jersey, the demand gap between small and large buildings is widening. Older small-bay properties (under 50,000 SF) are in high demand with just 3.9% availability. While newer big box spaces (250,000+ SF) struggle with oversupply with 13.6% availability. Limited land in North Jersey has shifted most new big box construction to Central and South Jersey. Three counties—Middlesex, Burlington, and Salem—hold 68% of the available big box space. Since 2023, NJ has added 38M SF of warehouse space, with 17.3M more under construction. This sets the stage for a highly competitive leasing environment in the coming years. For big box tenants, the market is growing more favorable. #nmrk #newmarkgreaterphilly
