The 26-acre Werner Electric site near the Mississippi River has a bedrock of limestone at two feet, which made accessing the site and setting the building foundation challenging. But easy truck access to Highways 494 and 61 make it an attractive location.
The building features separate office, training, and 32-foot clear height warehouse spaces that are directly accessible to one another. Exterior elements include rockface block, brick, and stucco, and the site offers walking paths and ponds.
Other nominee: 12th Avenue Business Center
