Cushman & Wakefield arranges 87,000 s/f in new leases at Onyx Equities’ Inwood Logistics Center

Queens, NY Cushman & Wakefield has arranged two new leases at the Inwood Logistics Center in Inwood. The deals mark another step in the rapid lease-up of the 10-building campus, which has seen an uptick in activity as demand accelerates in the supply constrained JFK Airport submarket.

The following leases were signed at the campus:

• At 95D Inip Dr., Gate Gourmet, the world’s leading provider of airline catering solutions, signed a lease for 63,437 s/f.

• At 71 Inip Dr., Yanwen Express, a leading logistics provider, signed a deal for 23,800 s/f.

Cushman & Wakefield’s executive director Helen Paul, Rico Murtha, Tom DeLuca, Sonny Singh, and David Frattaroli represented the landlord, Onyx Equities. Jimo Liu, also of Cushman & Wakefield, represented the Yanwen Express and Tom DiMicelli from JLL represented Gate Gourmet.

“Despite a shifting and uncertain economic landscape, the JFK industrial submarket remains incredibly resilient with historically low vacancy, which we expect to tighter even further as we get deeper into 2026,” said Paul. “We are seeing sustained tenant demand for high-quality, modern logistics facilities that offer immediate access to the airport. In a supply-constrained environment, well-located properties like the Inwood Logistics Center continue to attract top-tier tenants who require efficient connectivity and proximity to JFK for their time-sensitive operations.”

The recent activity comes on the heels of a 25,868 s/f lease signed in 2025 for ECMS Express, which provides international express, freight forwarding, and supply chain solutions. In total, the campus has seen more than 113,000 s/f in leasing activity arranged by Cushman & Wakefield in the last year, which is reflective of Onyx’s ability to create highly functional logistics space for the air cargo supply chain. 

The Inwood Logistics Center is a 10-building portfolio that has seen significant leasing activity under Onyx Equities’ ownership. The landlord has implemented a proactive repositioning strategy, including targeted capital improvements such as new roofing, LED lighting, and infrastructure upgrades to meet the needs of modern industrial tenants.

There was a time when an offering memorandum (OM) was pretty bare bones, some photos, a few bullet points on income, and a rent roll thrown in at the back. That used to get the job done. Not anymore. In 2025, buyers are sharper, faster, and more selective. They’re looking
