Wespac Construction has successfully completed Marbella Northern Parkway Phase 1, a LEED-certified project and the first step in a six-building, 51-acre industrial park master-planned for Northern Parkway and Dysart Road in Glendale.
Developed by Panattoni Development Company and designed by Ware Malcomb, this transformative project delivers 445,000 square feet of high-quality industrial space across three tilt-panel buildings.
Each building features two prominent storefront entrances and a north-facing spec suite, designed with architectural flair. Elements like ACM eyebrow accents and wall wash lighting at entrances create a dynamic visual identity, making entry points distinct and inviting. The docking sides are fully outfitted with automatic ramp-up doors, dock doors with mechanical levelers, and designated semi-truck parking for optimal logistics functionality.
The interiors of Marbella Northern Parkway blend industrial efficiency with elevated aesthetics. Finished with solid core walnut doors framed in matte black, the spaces also feature modern touches like tile backsplashes and restroom accent tile. LVT oak planks stretch through open office areas, complemented by plastic laminate millwork with quartz countertops and discreetly placed concealed sprinkler heads.

Strategically located on a Maricopa County Island, Phase 1 posed unique geotechnical challenges due to its position on a large fissure zone. Overcoming these complexities required extensive over-excavation and comprehensive water mitigation efforts, including the use of filter fabric and geo-grid, caulking at all PCCP joints, and site-wide stabilization measures beneath asphalt and wet utilities.
“We are thrilled to deliver this first phase of what promises to be a premier industrial hub in the West Valley,” said Matt McPherron, Wespac Senior Project Manager. “This project really shows off what can happen when innovation, sustainability, and teamwork come together, and it’s just the beginning of what’s ahead in the next phases.”
