JLL leases 211K-SF Kearny distribution facility to rapidly growing e-commerce firm
KEARNY, N.J., Aug. 12, 2025 –JLL announced today that it has completed a new full-building lease at 936 Harrison Ave., a 211,340-square-foot Class-A industrial property in Kearny, New Jersey, owned by Seagis Property Group.
A last-mile delivery company has signed a full building lease to relocate and expand from Seagis Property Group’s 25 Amor Ave. in Carlstadt, NJ, where it occupied 30,000 square feet.
Tyler Baker, Senior Vice President, Leasing & Investments, Seagis Property Group, said, “We are excited that this facility will accommodate our existing customer’s needs as it continues to grow and expand as a company.”
Seagis, one of New Jersey’s largest industrial owners, acquired 936 Harrison Ave. last year shortly after it was completed by Russo Development. The property boasts a two-story glass office entrance, a brick façade, 38-foot ceiling heights, abundant parking for both cars and trailers and on-site security. There are 41 loading docks along with two acres of outdoor storage.
The property’s strategic location immediately off Exit 15W of the New Jersey Turnpike allows for direct access to New York City via the Holland or Lincoln Tunnels. It is also proximate to the PATH train system’s Harrison stop, offering direct access to both Midtown and Lower Manhattan via rail. Its location in the Ports submarket also provides access to a labor pool of approximately five million people within a 10-mile radius.
The JLL Northeast Industrial team led by Vice Chairmen Rob Kossar and David Knee, Executive Vice President Ignatius Armenia, Senior Vice President Ryan Milanaik, Vice President Doug Rodenstein and Executive Managing Director Chris Hile represented the landlord in the transaction. Cushman & Wakefield’s Jimo Liu represented the tenant.
Said Kossar, “We are thrilled to close this deal at 936 Harrison Ave. This is a phenomenal outcome for all parties involved. Given its prime location, Class-A status and high-quality specifications, the property is ideally suited for the tenant as it continues to grow its presence in the e-commerce last-mile delivery industry.”
