AMB Property Corporation(R) , a leading global developer and owner of industrial real estate, today announced it has acquired approximately 400 acres of land in the High Desert submarket of Los Angeles. The land, named AMB Adelanto Gateway Logistics Center, is capable of supporting more than 7 million square feet of future industrial development.

AMB Adelanto Gateway Logistics Center provides easy access to Interstate 15, servicing Los Angeles and San Diego to the south and Las Vegas to the north. The site is adjacent to the future E-220 "High Desert Corridor" freeway, designed to connect Los Angeles to the High Desert with dedicated truck lanes enabling a rapid flow of goods through the region, plans for which include an off-ramp in front of AMB Adelanto Gateway Logistics Center.

"With AMB Adelanto Gateway Logistics Center, we're entering a new submarket of our largest market globally, capitalizing on the robust growth at the Los Angeles/Long Beach ports," said Gene Reilly, AMB's president, North America. "This transaction demonstrates our ability to acquire sizable, strategically located property, especially in regions such as southern California which have a scarcity of land with big box development potential."

AMB's presence in Los Angeles totals more than 20.5 million square feet of operating and development properties, with an operating portfolio that was more than 95% leased as of March 31, 2007.
