VanTrust Real Estate is rolling out Park 762, a single speculative industrial building of roughly one million square feet in Lockbourne, planting an enormous warehouse inside a 286‑acre master‑planned industrial park just off State Route 762 and next to the Rickenbacker Global Logistics Park. The company is aiming the project squarely at large distribution and manufacturing users that want immediate, build‑ready space at scale.
VanTrust's new spec building
As reported by Columbus Business First, VanTrust has officially taken Park 762 to market, pitching it as a one‑building speculative development meant to capture national tenants. The outlet notes that the move fits into VanTrust’s broader push into Central Ohio’s industrial sector, where the developer has been steadily building its presence.
Specs and site details
Marketing materials peg the building at about 1,082,578 square feet, with the option to expand to roughly 1.21 million square feet, according to LoopNet. The plans call for 40‑foot clear heights, 100 loading docks and four drive‑in bays. The brochure lists the address as 2330 Old Silo Way and highlights quick access to SR‑762 and US‑23, along with a planned interchange upgrade by ODOT. The listing cites LEED‑oriented design features and an estimated June 1, 2027 availability date. In size and setup, Park 762 falls in line with the recent wave of large buildings around Rickenbacker aimed at e‑commerce and regional distribution users.
Where Park 762 fits VanTrust’s pipeline
VanTrust has been stepping up its Columbus‑area activity with a mix of speculative and build‑to‑suit projects in recent quarters, according to a post from the Columbus Chamber. Industry coverage has also tracked similar one‑million‑square‑foot plays by the firm in nearby markets, reflecting a broader bet on ongoing demand for large‑format logistics space. The new Lockbourne building extends VanTrust’s reach in the Rickenbacker submarket and gives brokers another sizable block to tout to national shippers.
Local impact and next steps
The Lockbourne–Rickenbacker corridor has been buzzing with industrial development, with ODW Logistics alone adding an 864,000‑square‑foot facility in the area and signaling plans for more expansion at its campus, per the company’s announcement. Marketing materials for Park 762 call out parking capacity and potential tax incentives but do not name an anchor tenant, and the listing’s timeline suggests availability toward late 2027. Local officials and brokers say projects of this magnitude can lift regional logistics employment, while noting that the final job numbers will depend heavily on which tenants sign on and how much automation they bring.
What comes next
Brokers have already started shopping the space while VanTrust moves ahead with permitting and site work, according to industry reporting from ConnectCRE. Expect the next round of clues to show up in county filings and broker notices as construction permits are pulled and, eventually, tenant names surface. For now, Park 762 stands as the latest sign that Columbus’ logistics cluster continues to attract big industrial bets.
