Southmark III

The Southmark III building on Long Meadow Dr in the Southmark Commercial Center is a premier building available in Rowan County, NC. The building is new construction and is ready for an initial tenant. Developed for use as a manufacturing or warehouse/ distribution site, it was built ready for customization to suit the client.

Based on current design standards, Southmark III can meet the demands of the modern business. It sits on 5.1 acres and is a total of 31,250 square feet with 2,450 sq ft of office space and 28,800 sq ft of manufacturing or warehouse space. Ceiling height is ample with center clearance of 25 feet and eaves height of 23 feet. A 6 inch concrete slab floor can support machinery, forklifts or inventory. The metal columns and walls of the manufacturing/ warehouse space can be expanded to double the total size of the building. There are 3 below-grade dock doors with 8 x 10 ft dimensions and 1 drive door allowing for multiple distribution schemes. All standard utilities are available including water, sewer, electricity, gas and fiber optic cable.
