Cathy Thuringer
Trammell Crow
• Principal with Trammell Crow Company
• Has comprehensive management responsibility for development projects, commencing with initial site acquisition through ultimate project disposition.
• Oversees all aspects of industrial developments primarily in central and southern Arizona.
• Project profiles range from multi-phased business park infrastructure to single and multi-story speculative and build-to-suit office and industrial facilities.
Industry veterans define it as…
• “Any area that has limited sites for new development without having to tear down existing
real estate.”
• “A mature industrial submarket with a total developable land inventory comprising less than
10-15% of the existing base, where land assemblages are a typical requirement and
redevelopment of existing buildings is common.”
• “Submarket representing an extremely dense collection of industrial buildings with very high
barriers to entry, while also characterized as being proximate to large population centers. “
• “Location that benefits from a dense surrounding population and is well positioned to major
thoroughfares.”
• “Potential development sites located within a heavily populated area that is fully built out with
different asset classes. Caused by restrictive zoning which pushes development out of
certain areas with more open land areas.”
Panelists collective definition
“Infill Industrial projects are new developments that are situated in
built-up, established, mature infrastructure areas constrained by
geographical or, political challenges whereby new supply can not be
added in a reasonable timeframe to meet increases in demand.
Tenants are largely focused on last mile delivery and driven by local
population or employment base vs. cost”
