Eastport Exchange has lined up its second confirmed tenant, with Jacksonville-based third-party logistics firm FY Logistics set to build out a large block of space at the new North Jacksonville logistics park and move in next January. The deal adds momentum to the 136-acre industrial project as InLight Real Estate Partners keeps getting buildings ready for lease.
The city is reviewing a permit for Superior Industrial Group Inc. to handle tenant improvements totaling about 99,771 square feet in Suite 300 of Building 100 at 1450 Partners Drive, an estimated $1.45 million project, according to the Jax Daily Record. Michael Blake Architects LLC is listed as the architect, and NV5 Inc. is providing private plan review. InLight managing partner David Burch told the Jax Daily Record by email that FY Logistics will take occupancy in January 2027 under a seven-year term.
What FY Logistics Will Occupy
Building 100 at 1450 Partners Drive totals about 312,278 square feet, and suite layouts in the TDC II building can be configured into large bays of more than 25,000 square feet. The Eastport Exchange brochure lists 36-foot clear heights, dozens of dock doors and ample trailer and car parking, a setup that fits the needs of third-party logistics operators.
Who FY Logistics Is
FY Logistics is a Jacksonville-based third-party logistics company with its principal address at 13291 Vantage Way, Suite 102, in the International Tradeport, according to federal carrier records at FMCSA SAFER. The carrier snapshot shows the company is authorized for property motor-carrier operations and lists services including freight brokerage, air and sea freight and full-truckload shipments.
Why Eastport Exchange Matters To Shippers
Eastport Exchange is being marketed as a Class A logistics hub inside a Foreign-Trade Zone, with quick drayage routes to JAXPORT terminals and easy connections to I-95, I-295 and I-10, according to the park's prospectus. The brochure also highlights a second phase that could add up to 900,000 square feet of build-to-suit space, along with land that can be served by a CSX rail line.
Leasing And Market Context
Colliers represented FY Logistics in the lease agreement, while Cushman & Wakefield is marketing Eastport Exchange. InLight said the new lease brings the development to roughly 25 percent leased as it continues conversations with other prospects. The park's first tenant, USPly, received a city permit in early June to build out about 113,750 square feet in Building 200 and is expected to take occupancy this fall, according to the Jax Daily Record.
