Trent Agnew, Charlie Strauss, Lance Young, Brooke Petzold, and Dawson Hastings of JLL worked on the deal.<\/p>\n<p>The 1,020,722-SF portfolio contains recently constructed buildings of various configurations, including cross-dock, rear-load and front-load designs. Clear heights range from 26 to 36 feet.<\/p>\n<p>The acquired properties consist of: Central Green Corporate Center, totaling 516,134 SF across four buildings at the Hardy Toll Road and Central Green Boulevard near Bush Intercontinental Airport; North Houston Logistics Center Building G, totaling 351,400 SF at 30 Esplanade Blvd. near I-45 and Beltway 8; and West Little York, totaling 153,188 SF on West Little York near North Houston Rosslyn Road in northwest Houston.<\/p>\n<p>Marq Logistics, which represents Ares\u2019 vertically integrated global logistics real estate platform, will manage the portfolio. The buildings are near Houston highways and provide access to major cities across Texas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis portfolio presented an exceptional opportunity for investors to establish a significant presence in Houston\u2019s most sought-after industrial submarkets through a single transaction,\u201d said Trent Agnew, Senior Managing Director and Industrial Group Leader at JLL. \u201cWith over one million square feet of premier Class A logistics space, diverse tenant configurations and substantial mark-to-market upside, the NxNW Houston Portfolio allows new ownership to capitalize on the robust fundamentals driving Houston\u2019s industrial market while benefiting from the region\u2019s position as a critical distribution hub serving the broader Texas Triangle.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The deal follows another major portfolio transaction on Houston\u2019s north side. Atlanta-based MDH Partners recently <a href=\"https:\/\/realtynewsreport.com\/houston-industrial-portfolio-sells-for-93-million\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">acquired a nine-building industrial portfolio<\/a> along Beltway 8. That sale consisted of two buildings at 7220 N. Sam Houston Parkway West and seven buildings at 3403 N. Sam Houston Parkway West.<\/p>\n<p>Based in Los Angeles, Ares Real Estate has approximately $110 billion in assets under management. Ares recently consolidated its global logistics real estate platforms under the Marq Logistics brand. Marq manages more than 600 million SF of properties globally.<\/p>\n<p>Jan. 3, 2026 Realty News Report Copyright 2026<\/p>\n<p>Photo credit: JLL Capital Markets<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/apis.mail.yahoo.com\/ws\/v3\/mailboxes\/@.id==VjN-RmMmzZLZt1SMlmIsu3Ox1-rrpaLgn13I4D5qy6TQZO1aU6-tUxVx1Qih89EKvPzXOstHGQ2SvOzuBlPC52QM-g\/messages\/@.id==AHUwTvNn_bg0ZpkhJwA6mB2IPGg\/content\/parts\/@.id==2\/refresh?appid=YMailNorrinLaunch&amp;ymreqid=7dcc3189-bacc-13dc-1c44-8b0000013a00\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">THE RALPH BIVINS PROJECT PODCAST<\/a><\/p>\n<p>LISTEN:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/creators.spotify.com\/pod\/profile\/ralph-bivins-project\/episodes\/Creating-Places-with-David-Hightower-e36ao78\/a-ac34eoe\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">THE RALPH BIVINS PROJECT with David Hightower\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>LISTEN:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/9Zrfw6Sx9is\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">THE RALPH BIVINS PROJECT with Alex Kamkar of Bold Fox Development<\/a><\/p>\n<p>LISTEN:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/episode\/0XWOXvKpqgZVu9pThjizrF?si=99pxSnd6SayLuPbCEiSBCw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">THE RALPH BIVINS PROJECT with Brad McWhirter of Trahan Architects<\/a><\/p>\n<p>LISTEN:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/spotifycreators-web.app.link\/e\/YJ8cat0v7Rb\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">THE RALPH BIVINS PROJECT with Lacee Jacobs of Rebel Retail Advisors<\/a><\/p>\n<p>LISTEN:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/creators.spotify.com\/pod\/show\/ralph-bivins-project\/episodes\/New-Beginnings-with-Danny-Rice-e2rhiph\/a-ablc9s6\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">THE RALPH BIVINS PROJECT with Danny Rice of Colliers<\/a><\/p>\n<p>LISTEN:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/creators.spotify.com\/pod\/show\/ralph-bivins-project\/episodes\/The-Industrial-Revolution-with-Trey-Odom-e2rb1hk\/a-abl47tg\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">THE RALPH BIVINS PROJECT with Trey Odom of Avera<\/a><\/p>\n<p>LISTEN:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/spotifyanchor-web.app.link\/e\/yDPiP3WCiNb\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">THE RALPH BIVINS PROJECT with Kris Larson of Downtown Houston +<\/a><\/p>\n<p>LISTEN:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/spotifyanchor-web.app.link\/e\/tsUAuwCviNb\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">THE RALPH BIVINS PROJECT with Jim Carman of Howard Hughes Holdings<\/a><\/p>\n<p>LISTEN:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/creators.spotify.com\/pod\/show\/ralph-bivins-project\/episodes\/Showcasing-Development-e31csma\/a-absmimt\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">THE RALPH BIVINS PROJECT with Sam Scott of CommGate<\/a><\/p>\n<p>File: Blackstone Sells 1 million SF Houston Industrial Portfolio Trent Agnew Blackstone Sells 1 million SF Houston Industrial Portfolio JLL, Ares, Denver<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"HOUSTON \u2013 (Realty News Report) \u2013 An Ares Real Estate fund has acquired three industrial properties totaling more&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":109636,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[12426,56,58,57,49047],"class_list":["post-109635","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-houston","tag-blackstone","tag-houston","tag-houston-headlines","tag-houston-news","tag-jll-capital-markets"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/109635","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=109635"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/109635\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/109636"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=109635"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=109635"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=109635"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
