The first phase of I-80 Logistics Center will include two buildings of 305,760 square feet and 283,920 square feet.

SALT LAKE CITY -- USAA Real Estate Co. plans to build a 590,000-square-foot logistics center in Salt Lake City. The dual distribution warehouses will be situated on 31 acres at the entrance to the master-planned Bonneville Center. 

The 480-acre Bonneville Center is located two miles west of Salt Lake City International Airport. The new Class A project is known as I-80 Logistics Center due to its close proximity to the interstate. 

The first phase of I-80 Logistics Center will include two buildings of 305,760 square feet and 283,920 square feet. Each building will be designed to accommodate up to six tenants. The properties can also be combined to accommodate a larger user that requires up to 650,000 square feet. 

Seefried Properties is co-developing the project. USAA originally acquired 57.4 acres near the Bonneville Center, 26.4 of which may be used to construct a third building with 502,320 square feet at a later date. 

"Situated midway between coasts and appointed with excellent infrastructure and transportation modes, Salt Lake City is a critical logistics hub, particularly for Western U.S. markets that are enjoying renewed economic growth," says Len O'Donnell, USAA's CEO. "Demand for large-format, Class A warehouse space is high and growing among leading national corporations."
