Industrial Properties in Kendall

Kendall is a census-designated place in Miami-Dade County about an 18-mile drive southwest of Downtown Miami. The community is mostly residential with supporting commercial developments such as strip malls, office buildings, and shopping center. There are a few pockets of industrial product, namely the Bird Road District, Tamiami Airport, Palmetto Bay, and Falls District.

The Bird Road District continues to undergo a transformation from more typical industrial uses to more retail and entertainment activities such as breweries and other creative uses similar to Wynwood. Tamiami Airport, renamed as Miami Executive Airport, is surrounded by warehouse product. Most of the industrial product is mainly street level, small bay, multi-tenanted properties. Some dock-high product exists in these areas, but it is not the typical structure, and it is usually the result of a specific user having a custom-building build for their specific needs. Most users are small businesses, trades, service providers and others. There is an opportunity for construction of larger, dock-high distribution spaces and options are very limited for a user looking for that type of space that is prevalent in Airport West and other submarkets.

Unlike the submarkets north of the Dolphin Expressway, there is not much institutional ownership of industrial properties in Kendall.
