Dacon Completes Facility for Crate&Barrel, Sterling Movers

36 Executive Drive, Hudson, N.H.

Hudson, NH – Dacon has completed a 95,000sf expansion of 36 Executive Drive in Hudson, in response to market demand for warehouse and distribution space along the Massachusetts/New Hampshire border.

The property is centrally located to Routes 3 and 495 in Sagamore Industrial Park. This expansion is now fully leased to Crate&Barrel which has earmarked this site as a customer pick-up center for northeast New England, and Sterling Movers which will utilize the space for transitional warehousing of client goods.

With a concerted focus on sustainability across its 100 locations, home decor store Crate&Barrel employs responsibly sourced packaging, sustainable forestry practices and is 100% LED lit. Sterling Movers provides end-to-end residential and commercial services for the healthcare, life science, technology, academic and manufacturing sectors. While it serves the New England region, its reach is national with services entailing moving, storage, specialty freight transportation, furniture installation and building decommissioning.

The merits of this project rested on flexibility and feasibility: crafting a space to be responsive to a variety of tenant needs, increasing leasing capacity by 50%, rapid timing, and realistic cost. Design elements include a high bay, 32 foot clear-height conventional structure with tilt-up concrete wall facade, high-performance storefront glazing systems, two entrances, 11 egresses, a truck court accommodating 21 simultaneously loading vehicles, and dock levelers.
