Terreno Realty Corp. expanded its Los Angeles footprint with two industrial properties, totaling 4.3 acres, in Compton and Hawthorne, Calif., for a combined price of $38.7 million. The company plans a $15.8 million investment for the Hawthorne asset.

Completed in 1955, the Compton property spans 3 acres and comprises a low-rise warehouse and distribution building with an estimated stabilized cap rate of 5.5 percent. The property, acquired for $32.1 million, is currently fully leased to two short-term tenants.

The other property encompasses 1.3 acres and will be redeveloped into a 33,000-square-foot LEED-certified distribution facility. Currently leased on a short-term basis until December, the asset is expected to reach a 5 percent cap rate.

Located at 19500 S. Alameda St., within the Rancho Dominguez community, the first facility is less than half a mile from Interstate 105 and is surrounded by several distribution and manufacturing companies such as iDC Logistics, PL Developments and Eurostar Inc./WSS Distribution Center, among others. The second property, located at 4857 W. 147th St., is within half a mile of Interstate 405 and next to numerous retail options.
