The developers of Beacon Lakes, Codina Group and AMB Property Corporation, are pleased to announce that the first 206,000 square foot facility (Building "9") will be completed and ready for lease in August 2004. The building, which features the 28' clear advantage*, ESFR sprinkler system and 6" slab, is the first "spec" building constructed in the Airport West market in the last 3 years.

*The 28' clear provides over 20% more storage capacity and efficiency than the market standard 24' clear. For a cost-savings calculator, go to www.beacon-lakes.com

Beacon Lakes is a fully master-planned, 436-acre business park in Miami's thriving Airport West market, with direct access to Miami International Airport and the Port of Miami. Upon completion, the park will have 6.6 million square feet of space. Located at the intersection of the Florida Turnpike, N.W. 25th Street and State Road 836, the project offers unique flexibility with warehouse/distribution space for lease ranging from 140,000 to 200,000 square feet, land for sale and build-to-suit options. Additionally, the Codina/AMB team is a leader in delivering high quality, turnkey, custom commercial developments.

A new concept being introduced at Beacon Lakes is its "park within a park." The Village at Beacon Lakes will consist of 1 million square feet of warehouses for sale. These units for ownership will range in size from bay units at 6,500 square feet to full buildings at 16,500 square feet. All of the buildings will be rear-loading with complete segregation of vehicular and truck traffic. Gated security is planned for the "Village" and architecture will be standardized and controlled for the benefit and protection of the owners. Customized financing opportunities are available to qualified owners.. The Airport West market, with 52 million square feet of industrial space and 14.5 million square feet of office space is the largest industrial and office market in South Florida. Due to the lack of developable land available in Airport West, Beacon Lakes will be the last of its kind.

Beacon Lakes is the 6th business park developed by Codina Group in Airport West in the last 17 years. Now in partnership with AMB - one of the nation's largests REITs and the singular largest landlord in this market with 4.5 million square feet - the Beacon Lakes project is well positioned to deliver innovative commercial real estate products to accommodate Miami's expanding international business and trade needs. The park's distinguishing characteristics include:
" Prime location, great access and prominent exposure
" Spec buildings are 28' clear vs. the traditional 18-24' clear
" ESFR sprinkler systems - allowing for maximum storage height - vs. conventional 231C Class IV
" 6" slab vs. 4-5"
" Segregation of truck and vehicular traffic
" Most buildings "rear" loading
" Ability to buy the building through comprehensive build-to-suit program
