AMB Property Corporation(R) , a leading global developer and owner of industrial real estate, announced today that it has fully leased a recently completed 388,000 square foot distribution warehouse development in Seattle, named AMB Riverfront Distribution Center Building B.

A leading provider of store fixtures and logistics management for the retail, hospitality and financial industries now occupies 297,500 square feet of the distribution facility. One of the country's largest fast food chains occupies an additional 90,500 square feet. Both lease terms are for 10 years.

"This leasing activity underscores our confidence in the Seattle market, which we consider to be one the strongest in the United States, with moderate new supply, vibrant demand and high occupancy rates," said Gene Reilly, AMB's president, North America. "We are pleased that we are able to continue to meet steady demand for modern and well-located distribution facilities in this dynamic market, where we've also recently pre-leased more than a third of our 750,000 square foot AMB Valley Distribution Center development."

AMB's Seattle market portfolio totals approximately 8.7 million square feet of operating and development properties located to serve seaport, airport, and intermodal-related distribution.
