"We will continue to provide the most cost-effective and efficient industrial space in the region," Rollnick said. "We want to contribute to our tenants' competitiveness and their success in business."

Rollnick said that Crown West's decision to purchase the park was driven by long-term growth potential in the Northwest and the park's dominance in the local market. The facility represents nearly 50 percent of the area's industrial space in the over 10,000 square feet category. He added that Crown West is interested in acquiring other West Coast properties.

Pentzer Development announced more than a year ago that the park was for sale. The move is part of an overall plan to reduce its real estate holdings in favor of investments that would provide a better return for shareholders, the company said.
