NAIOP honors "Best of the Best" in Tampa

NAIOP Tampa Bay presented its “Best of the Best” awards to Tampa-area developers, investors and brokers late last month.

The 2019 awards were led by Brennan Investment Group, of Illinois, which received Developer of the Year honors. Brennan, which is led in Tampa by Bob Krueger, is developing a 1 million-square-foot, speculative industrial project in Lakeland. CenterState Logistics Park East comes after Brennan delivered a 605,000-square-foot project nearby in 2017, which was fully leased before completion by Pepsico unit Quaker Oats and subsequently sold to a Los Angeles investment firm for$59.6 million. In all, the roughly $90 million CenterState East project is expected to contain 1.5 million square feet.
