Amazon, Whole Foods and the challenge of urban industrial and last-mile deliveryBy Dan Rafter, Editor

FEATURE: FINANCE

FEATURE (continued on page 14)

FEATURE (continued on page 8)

Amazon’s recent purchase of Whole Foods Market gives the e-commerce giant a foot-hold in the grocery business, one of the few retail sectors that the online giant doesn’t yet dominate. But gaining control of 431 Whole Foods stores across the country serves another important function, it helps the company resolve the ‘last-mile’ challenge of delivering fresh food to its customers.

The last-mile is an important one, of course. It’s that last bit of delivery space between a retailer and its customer base. The last-mile challenge has long been a tough one for the delivery of fresh food. Vegetables, meats and fruit must be delivered as quickly as possible.

By nabbing Whole Foods stores, Amazon can use these locations as important cogs in last-mile delivery. Customers can order their fresh food online, and then Amazon can send the groceries quickly from one of its newly bought Whole Foods grocery stores.

The Amazon buy impacts every Midwest state that has a Whole Foods store. Missouri is a good example: The state has three Whole Foods stores in the Kansas City area and three in the St. Louis region.

“E-commerce is pushing so much of the demand for industrial activity in our market today,” said Joe Hill, senior vice president with the St. Louis office of Colliers Interna-tional. “The activity we are seeing, though, is not so much on the manufacturing side, but on the distribution side. It is mostly involving distribution centers.”

And like in most major cities, companies operating in the St. Louis region are, like Amazon, looking for solutions to the last-mile delivery challenge, Hill said.

I t’s no real surprise: Multifamily is the asset class that is most responsible for the steady business that commercial fi-nancing companies are enjoying today.

But there’s more to the story. While apartment de-velopments, acquisitions and refinances are gener-ating a still-growing stream of financing requests, commercial finance companies are also seeing plenty of business from other asset classes, most notably industrial and retail.

It adds up to a strong market for commercial financing providers, many of which are closing re-cord-high amounts of business.

The best news? The commercial financing pros who recently spoke to Midwest Real Estate News pre-dict that the financing business will remain strong for years to come.

THE MULTIFAMILY BOOMLike others in the commercial financing business, Jim Cope, executive vice president and managing director in the Milwaukee office of Walker & Dun-lop, says that requests for multifamily loans are keeping his company busy today.

Cope said that the pace of multifamily acquisitions had been slow earlier in the year. But now that end of the business has picked up. He said that the recapitalization end of the business is now a strong one, with long-term investors recapitalizing

Multifamily still commercial financing star, but other assets offer opportunities, too By Dan Rafter, Editor

Multifamily continues to generate steady business for commercial financing companies.

There’s been a steady increase in renter households the past several years, and multifamily construction has reached the highest levels since the 1980s, ac-cording to a report from FreddieMac. In Chicago,

vacancy rates are expected to remain tight this year, which will boost rental-income growth expectations.

That means developers and investors are looking for cre-ative ways to enter the multifamily market—one being condominium deconversions. The positive outlook for multifamily this year comes at a time when condos built in the ‘70s and ‘80s are starting to age, and associations might be considering a sale instead of making updates.

Some recent condo deconversions include a 101-unit Buena Park property at 732 W. Bittersweet Place for $16.2 million, 133-unit Clark Place at 2625 N. Clark St. for $35 million and, one of the largest deals to date, the 207-unit Bel Harbour at 420 W. Belmont Ave. for $51.5 million. Several other condos such as 268-unit Kennelly Square, 150-unit Park View Tower and 293-unit Century Tower could also be turned into apartments.

Condo deconversions are known to be incredibly com-plex and time-consuming. In order to purchase a condo building, the buyer must get 75 percent, sometimes more, of owners to agree to the sale. That means finding and contacting all the owners, who might not even occupy the unit, and making sure they are comfortable with the offer.

ut of the country’s major metro areas, Chicago has the fifth-highest construction costs, according to a report from JLL. National trends such as rising costs for materials

and pockets of labor shortages only add zeros to the bottom line. But for companies battling it out to attract the best employees, rising construction costs are worth it when you end up with an im-pressive, enviable workspace.

Chris Novak, senior vice president at Leopardo, said a lot has changed in construction since he joined the firm nearly 27 years ago. Novak leads Leopardo’s commercial interiors group and main-

Chicago condo deconversions trending, signals multifamily hotter than ever By Sara Freund , Staff Writer

A rendering from The Kent, formerly Clark Place condominiums, which was purchased by Strategic Properties in a condo deconversion deal.

orthwest Indiana has long been a refuge for industrial users seeking lower land costs, a strong labor force and a respite from the higher taxes across the border in Illinois. And economic development offi-

cials in this slice of Indiana say that the industrial market here is only getting stronger.

There's evidence of this taking place now in the North-west Indiana town of Michigan City. In mid-May, Holla-day Properties began construction of the Haskell Build-ing, a 64,000-square-foot speculative light industrial

building. The building is part of the Ameriplex-Marquette business park now under construction in Michigan City.

During a ground-breaking for the building, Mike Micka, vice president of development for Holladay Properties, praised Michigan City officials for their pro-business stance and for the efforts they made to attract a develop-ment such as his company's business park.

GREEN (continued on page 9)

Warehouses, factories and distribution hubs don't conjure up images of green design. At least not yet.

Green building has advanced way past grass on a rooftop. New technology, lighter soil and innovative ways to utilize rooftop space could help the industrial sector adopt sustainable design.

Office buildings, retail and luxury apartment towers haven't had a problem going green—city hall, the Rock n’ Roll McDonald's and the Aqua Tower are all examples of this. But industrial buildings are different. Dirt can get heavy, and the roof on top of a 500,000-square-foot facility might not be built to support the weight of a garden, which can reach up to 50 pounds a square foot. Other hurdles include affordability, extra planning effort and older structures being unable to accommodate extra weight.

As technology advances, some of those prob-lems get solved. OMNI Ecosystems, a company that creates living infrastructure, has developed an extremely light and biodiverse growing me-dium, called Infinity Media. If you're wondering how you make dense dirt lighter, OMNI Founder and chief executive officer Molly Meyer simpli-fies the explanation by likening the process to a popcorn maker. All the same material is there; it's just popped with air so that per square foot it weighs as little as 15 pounds.

The lighter soil can grow everything from lawns, flower fields, veggies and even small apple trees. The plant index from The Roof Crop, which farms and maintains roofs from OMNI Ecosystems, lists five varieties of broccoli, two kinds of kale, six types of tomatoes and more obscure greens like Pak Choi and Mizuna. OMNI Ecosystems just harvested its own roof-top this spring that grows specialty greens for James Beard-nominated Momotaro on Ran-dolph Street.
