The five-building campus was built in 1988 at 5100-5150 East La Palma Avenue. The buildings range in size from 19,000 to 49,000 square feet, and accommodate tenants from 700 square feet as they grow and expand within the park, which encompasses more than six acres and is situated approximately one mile east of the 91 and the 55 Freeway interchange in the Anaheim Canyon area.

Market fundamentals remain strong in the Anaheim industrial market, with a vacancy rate of 0.9 percent as of the third quarter of 2019, according to Cushman & Wakefield’s research. The sale of Anaheim Hills Business Center ranks as the second-largest industrial transaction so far in the fourth quarter this year.

In October, Harbor Associates acquired the 10-story Anaheim City Centre at 222 South Harbor Boulevard in downtown Anaheim as part of an $80-million trade. And industrial developer Goodman Group recently completed the Goodman Industrial Center Anaheim, which spans 143,250 square feet.
