Work completes on more than 220,000 sq ft of industrial and logistics space
Construction company, Glencar, has completed work on two industrial & logistics units in Leeds for Baytree, a developer of logistics buildings.
These properties, Unit 3 covering 145,454 sq ft and Unit 1 76,231 sq ft, are at Baytree Leeds within the Stourton Industrial area, about three miles southeast of Leeds city centre.
Glencar managing director Midlands and North, Peter Goodman, said: “Baytree Leeds serves as an exemplar Industrial & Logistics development designed to be at the very leading edge of technology, ESG and User Health and Wellbeing enabled features with building usage and user requirements firmly in mind.
“As the third development we have delivered to date for Baytree we are proud to be a trusted delivery partner and to now include this cutting edge, technology driven sustainable development into our ever expanding I&L project portfolio.
“I would like to take my hat off to the exceptional team and partners that worked on this project and we look forward to working with Baytree again very soon.”
Glencar director of ESG, James Scott, said: “It has been an honour to contribute to the design and development of phase one of this scheme and to deliver two of the first BREEAM Outstanding warehouses built speculatively in Leeds.
“It’s also fantastic to see the ‘Baytree Edge – Innovation at work’ concept once again in evidence and the rich array of technology enabled efficiencies, flexibility by design, health and wellbeing and clear air, water, soil and energy features.
“As leaders in this space, Baytree allows us all to get ahead of regulation and future proof our customers businesses.”
Casey Ferguson, development manager at Baytree, added: “We are proud to announce the practical completion of phase one at Baytree Leeds, our latest best-in-class logistics scheme.
“This development marks a significant milestone as the first BREEAM Outstanding speculative development in the north of England, setting a new benchmark in ESG for the region.
“The scheme also provides some much-needed speculative development in a prime Leeds location just one mile from both the M1 and M621 junctions.
“Given the location and leading-edge specification, we are confident this will attract a lot of interest from our customers.”
