HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec 3, 2025--
Sagard Real Estate, a leading real estate investment advisor, today announced the acquisition of a 75,225-square-foot Class A industrial facility located at the Port of Houston. The transaction is consistent with Sagard Real Estate’s industrial investment strategy, focused on acquiring high-quality, functional assets in the nation’s top markets.
Positioned directly across from the Port of Houston’s Barbours Cut Container Terminal – the 5th largest container port in the United States – the property offers heavy-haul capability and excellent access to Highway 146, Highway 225, Beltway 8, I-10, and I-45. The facility is located within Southeast Houston, the metro’s top-performing industrial submarket supported by limited developable land, strong tenant demand, and record-setting port activity.
“This acquisition reflects our focus on strategic opportunities within the nation’s leading industrial markets,” said Brett Birkeland, Managing Director, Acquisitions at Sagard Real Estate. “The property’s location, connectivity, and functionality align with our strategy of investing in high-quality industrial assets in major U.S. seaport markets and support our conviction in properties positioned to deliver durable long-term value.”
Built in 2008, the Class A facility includes 28-foot clear heights, a front-load configuration with a 130' truck court, 23 dock-high doors, trailer and vehicle drive-in doors. The 5-acre site also includes one acre of dedicated yard space with independent access points.
The transaction follows Sagard Real Estate’s recent acquisition of 225 Crossing, a 163,402-square-foot industrial facility in Southeast Houston and complements the existing 16 th Street project in LaPorte acquired in 2020. The investment underscores the firm’s continued momentum in scaling portfolios of high-quality assets in top U.S. logistics markets.
