Brennan Acquires ITS ConGlobal Container Yard

Brennan Investment Group has acquired more than 50 acres located along the I-55 Expressway, west of Cicero Avenue and east of Harlem Avenue on Chicago’s Southwest Side. Terms of the deal weren’t disclosed. 

ITS ConGlobal, North America’s leading operator of intermodal, finished vehicle, and depot service terminals, operates the container yard under a long-term lease agreement with Brennan. The property is also rail served and has exclusive access to a private road. 

“Arguably, this land parcel is the best site in Chicago for these types of outdoor, intermodal operations,” said Kevin Brennan, managing principal of Brennan Investment Group, who oversees all of Brennan’s activities in the Midwest Region. “Located nearby multiple rail terminals, providing quick access to I-55, and being within close proximity to the city itself, it doesn’t get much better than this. The long-term potential of this site is clear and compelling.”
