CHARLESTON, SC — Choate Construction Company announces the completion of Palmetto Logistics Center, the largest speculative distribution and warehouse facility in Charleston, South Carolina. Choate Construction partnered with LS3P Associates to construct this 1.32 million-square-foot facility for Dalfen Industrial, complete with 40-foot clear heights, a 185-foot truck court, 125 dock-high doors, drive-in doors, and ample parking for staff.
Palmetto Logistics offers a prime location in North Charleston, with access to the I-26 corridor, which runs south to the Port of Charleston and north to Greenville-Spartanburg. It is the closest industrial site in the city to the port and is just 2.5 miles from the Charleston International Airport.
Despite above-average rainfall and adverse weather conditions throughout the build, the project team maintained the 16-month schedule for the 10-acre disturbed site. The ability to adapt, reinforced by the use of an onsite batch plant, allowed the team to deliver the project under challenging conditions.
“The completion of Palmetto Logistics exemplifies what can be achieved through strong partnerships and shared commitment,” said Tim Heichelbech, Division Manager for Choate in Charleston. “Through our work with Dalfen Industrial, LS3P, and our talented trade partners, this facility will not just support the business needs of future tenants, but it will also contribute significantly to the continued economic growth of our region and serve as a catalyst for continued development in the market.”
