Weston CRE Wins NAIOP Award for Best Small Industrial Project

We are thrilled to announce that Weston Commercial Real Estate has been honored with the NAIOP of Central Ohio Award for Best Small Industrial Project of the Year. This recognition celebrates our speculative industrial development at 885 Stelzer Road in Columbus, Ohio—a 207,000 SF building that exemplifies excellence in planning, construction, and execution.

A Team Effort from Start to Finish

This project was a true testament to teamwork and dedication. Special recognition goes to our development team, Kurt Updegraff and Jason Stump, who expertly led the construction process. From securing the land to navigating the complexities of development, their leadership ensured the project stayed on track and aligned with our high standards.

We’re also proud to acknowledge Derek Lichtfuss and the team at Newmark, whose expertise as our broker was instrumental in securing a long-term, full-building tenant. Their strategic approach and market knowledge were vital in concluding this project on a strong and successful note.

A Vision Realized

What began as a speculative venture is now a fully realized industrial property, serving as a critical asset to its tenant and a valuable contribution to Columbus’ thriving industrial market. The journey—from securing the land to completing development and locking in a long-term user—showcases the power of vision, collaboration, and execution.

This award is a reflection of the incredible work of our team and partners. At Weston, we are proud to be part of shaping the industrial landscape in Central Ohio, and we look forward to delivering more projects that make an impact.

Thank you to NAIOP of Central Ohio for this prestigious recognition. Here’s to many more milestones ahead!
