Middleton Industrial

Year Acquired

550,000 SF

Industrial Space

8400 Fairway Place and 2235 Eagle Drive were originally constructed in the early 1990’s by Pleasant Company to serve as the headquarters for American Girl Doll. The Property is comprised of two industrial warehouse buildings with a combined size of 550,000 SF, as well as 20 acres of undeveloped land. The buildings have excellent clear heights and upgraded systems, establishing the Property as one of the premier industrial assets on Madison’s west side.

In 2023, General Capital acquired the property with the goal of maintaining the existing buildings as best-in-class industrial assets while strategically developing the surplus land over the course of the next 5-7 years.
