Real Estate Development & Investments

Real Estate Development Solutions

Exploding online retail sales are driving an urgent need for more distribution space. Finding critical locations in this competitive market is a challenge.

At Burns & McDonnell, we can leverage our experience in project management and customer service to develop and invest in industrial, warehousing and distribution space. Our focus is on helping identify properties ready for development or redevelopment near multimodal transportation hubs.

Industrial Warehouse & Distribution Facility Development

Our team will help develop logistically optimized projects, particularly warehouse and distribution centers and other storage facilities. We focus on applying our demonstrated problem-solving abilities to deliver customized real estate development solutions, delivered safely, on time and within budget.

We are able to fill a custom role, serving as an internal developer, co-developer, cash equity investor or general partner on projects covering 20 to 200 acres, 300,000 to 1 million square feet. We will also leverage our growing network of more than 40 offices nationwide.

The Burns & McDonnell Difference

We believe true partnerships are the key to successful projects. At Burns & McDonnell, we dedicate experienced and innovative leaders to our projects, going beyond the specific needs of any particular job.

We build long-term relationships as our people — engineers, architects, construction professionals, scientists and now real estate development professionals — become valued extensions of our clients’ teams, sometimes for decades. It’s a point of pride that our clients sometimes find it difficult to tell the difference between a Burns & McDonnell employee and one of their own.
