Phoenix wins US industrial construction crown

With 40 million square feet of industrial construction underway in the first half of the year, Phoenix leads the nation in that category, according to a report by real estate listing site CommercialSearch. However, the site notes that construction starts eased 8% between January and June and further slowing is expected until space without currently confirmed tenants is filled.KJZZ-FM (Tempe, Ariz.)(8/19)
