Logistics Firm Quadruples Space with Indianapolis Relocation

BNSF Logistics, a subsidiary of rail giant BNSF, has signed an office lease at 141 E. Ohio Street in downtown Indianapolis. The 13,105-square-foot lease was signed at the circa-1913 historic office building, owned by Crown Property Management.

NKF’s Kevin O’Donnell represented BNSF Logistics on the lease transaction. The 141 E. Ohio space represents a 424% increase in its Indianapolis footprint; the company’s former office space was approximately 2,500 square feet.

“BNSF was outgrowing its former space and wanted to expand into an office that could accommodate its business and future growth,” said O’Donnell. “After an extensive search, we settled on the Ohio Street location, moving BNSF from the Northside to downtown Indianapolis. This move allows the company to be close to the expansive downtown amenity base, along with access to the large, labor pool that lives and works in the central area.”
