Bell Street Industrial Facility

Bloomington, Illinois, is a strategically positioned industrial market in the heart of the Midwest, benefiting from immediate access to Interstates 55, 74, and 39, as well as proximity to major distribution hubs including Chicago, St. Louis, and Indianapolis. The city anchors the Bloomington-Normal MSA, a stable and business-friendly region supported by a diverse economic base that includes State Farm Insurance (headquartered locally), Rivian Automotive’s electric vehicle manufacturing facility, and Illinois State University. This combination of institutional stability and emerging advanced manufacturing has driven consistent demand for industrial space and a reliable labor pool. The area has seen increasing interest from logistics, e-commerce, and advanced manufacturing users due to its central location, competitive operating costs, and access to a skilled workforce. Industrial fundamentals remain strong, characterized by limited supply, steady absorption, and upward pressure on rents—particularly for modern, high-clearance product. Bloomington’s pro-business environment, coupled with ongoing infrastructure investment and regional population stability, positions it as an attractive market for institutional-quality industrial assets and long-term capital deployment.This expansive 252,811-square-foot industrial complex at 1100 E. Bell Street represents a landmark opportunity in the heart of Bloomington. Spanning nearly 12 acres and located across from the Lakeside Country Club. The property is zoned M-1 and consists of several interconnected buildings that provide a versatile layout for large-scale operations, distribution, or warehousing. The facility is engineered for heavy-duty performance, featuring a robust 480-volt, 3-phase electrical service with over 1200 AMPS to support demanding industrial machinery. Logistics are handled with ease via 14 trailer docks and 2 overhead doors, complemented by ceiling heights that reach up to 32 feet in select areas. The site currently provides ample parking for vehicles, but the significant land area offers the potential for conversion to accommodate even more semi-truck access or expanded parking needs. Safety and modern comfort are integrated throughout the complex, which is fully sprinkled with a wet system and protected by a monitored fire alarm. This listing offers immense operational potential. The property sits just west of Hannah Street, located between Bell Street and Croxton Avenue. Located caddy corner from Lakeside Country Club.
