The sale follows behind USAA Real Estate's 2007 purchase of SouthPort Logistics Center, a 1.6M SF warehouse off Westridge Parkway in McDonough sold by Oakmont Industrial Group for $64.25M, and the Cobb County Development Authority's 2006 purchase of 1675 Airport Road for $70M from FedEx. The top Atlanta sale occurred last year when Deutsche Bank AG purchased 1000 Logistics Center Drive, a more than 1M SF distribution center in Fairburn, from TPA Group for $77.25M, according to CoStar.
