DENVER, March 04, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Black Creek Group, a Denver-based real estate investment manager and development firm with a 25-year history, today announced the acquisition of 56.4 acres to develop Creekside Commerce Center, consisting of four industrial distribution facilities. The development is in Charlotte’s premier Southwest industrial submarket and is the company’s first development in the Charlotte market.
