Tell us about your holdings across Arizona—you seem to have a mix of income producing and land assets—where and what?
Saint Holdings and Saint Management group of companies owns and manages various projects in Arizona.
These assets include:
- Two shovel ready Advanced Manufacturing and Distribution Industrial Parks.
- Central Arizona Commerce Park (CAZCP) in Casa Grande – home to Tractor Supply Company and the future home to Lucid Motors.
- Inland Port AZ (IPAZ), a 2700 =/- rail served Industrial Park in the heart of Pinal County in the City of Coolidge.
- The 11,447 acres former Mesa Water Farm, now land planned for the much expected and fast approaching future growth of Pinal County and its ideal position in the ‘Sun Corridor’ between Phoenix and Tucson.
- Offices in downtown Scottsdale at the Waterfront.
- Various residential assets.
How did you end up purchasing what had been known for decades as the “mesa water farm” property in Coolidge, how many acres is it and what are you planning there/what do you have entitled?
It is 11.447 acres.
We believe in the path of growth between Phoenix and Tucson. There is an abundance of infrastructure in the area from Power, gas, rail lines, the convergence of the I-10 and I-8 (to major interstates) and several adjoining highways. The will of the leaders of the county, Cities and residents have expressed their desire to see the area prosper and grow.
The entire acreage is all actively farmed.
