ReadySpaces, a company that provides storage spaces for small businesses along with industrial workspace and offices and conference rooms has signed a long-term lease with Simone Development for the entire 110,300-square-foot building at 250 E. Sandford Blvd. in Mount Vernon.
ReadySpaces operates 32 warehouse facilities in the U.S. and Canada with a customer base of more than 2,000 businesses, and more launches upcoming. The company was founded in 2016. The Mount Vernon location, which the company says will open soon, is the second in New York state and fifth in the New York City/North Jersey area.
“We are delighted to have ReadySpaces, a fast growing and innovative company, as our single tenant at 250 E. Sandford Boulevard,” said Josh Gopan, vice president of leasing for Simone. “This facility provides ReadySpaces with an abundance of modern industrial/flex space in a convenient location that offers easy access to major highways and public transportation.”
Kevin Petrovic, a partner at ReadySpaces said there is high demand in the New York Metro area for the facilities the company provides. The company said that it averages 65 small businesses in each of its storage buildings.
The 250 E. Sandford Blvd. building has more than 18,000 square feet on the ground floor, more than 30,000 square feet on levels one and two and nearly 32,000 square feet on level three. It features 145 parking spaces and six loading docks. There is direct drive-in access on the ground level and load-in access on all floors enabled by the topography of the site.
The building was constructed in 1970 and Simone bought it in Sept. 2021. Simone undertook renovations that included a new exterior façade, new windows, new elevator, the addition of a front-loading dock and complete paving and restriping of the three-acre site.
ReadySpaces offers large warehouse layouts ranging from 1,500 square feet to 5,000 square feet. Medium and small warehouse spaces run from 1,500 square feet to 300 square feet. Its mini-warehouse spaces are as small as 100 square feet.
