Jaxport issues RFP for rail-served property lease

The Jacksonville Port Authority (Jaxport) has issued a request for proposals (RFP) for companies interested in entering into a long-term lease agreement for the development of  79 acres of rail-served industrial maritime property.

The port-owned property is located at the Talleyrand Marine Terminal and has access to at least one berth, port officials said in the RFP. The current tenant is Southeast Toyota Distributors, which will vacate the land in 2025 when construction of new facilities for Southeast Toyota is complete at Jaxport’s Blount Island Marine Terminal, according to the RFP.

The property features on-dock rail capabilities. Jaxport is served by CSX, Norfolk Southern Railway and the Florida East Coast Railway.

Responses to the RFP are due June 21.
