This is one of the most strategically positioned industrial investment properties currently available in the San Gabriel Valley submarket. Situated directly adjacent to both the 605 and 210 Freeways, 2350 Central Ave in Irwindale delivers rare freeway visibility combined with three distinct income streams: building income, RV storage income, and billboard income.

Key Investment Highlights:

  • 5.7% Cap Rate — strong in-place return for the 210 Corridor submarket
  • Three income sources: building rent, RV/outdoor storage, and billboard revenue
  • Freeway-adjacent location — immediate access to the 605 and 210 interchange, serving the broader SGV and Inland Empire West logistics corridor
  • ±102,502 SF of land — significant land-to-building ratio with potential for outdoor storage, expansion, or repositioning
  • ±3,700 SF of office included within the 24,000 SF building
  • Excellent 1031 exchange upleg candidate — stabilized income, strong location, and M2 industrial zoning

For investors seeking income diversity beyond a standard single-tenant NNN lease, this property is unusually well-positioned. The combination of freeway exposure, land mass, and multiple revenue streams creates a defensible investment profile that is difficult to replicate in this corridor.

Why Industrial Investment in Southern California?

Southern California's industrial market — particularly the LA Basin, Mid-Counties, and Inland Empire corridors — remains one of the most fundamentally sound commercial real estate sectors in the country. Key demand drivers include:

  • Port of Los Angeles and Port of Long Beach — the two busiest ports in the U.S., driving persistent logistics and warehousing demand
  • Last-mile delivery infrastructure — e-commerce fulfillment continues to favor infill industrial locations throughout LA County and Orange County
  • Supply constraints — land scarcity in the LA Basin limits new industrial development, supporting long-term value for existing buildings
  • Diverse tenant base — manufacturing, food production, cannabis, aerospace, cold storage, and logistics all compete for the same industrial square footage

For 1031 exchange buyers, industrial multi-tenant properties offer one of the most reliable combinations of income stability, tenant diversification, and long-term appreciation.
