Merus signs full-building lease at Aurora Commerce Center

Merus has signed a lease for all 1,008,072 SF at Aurora Commerce Center in the Indianapolis area. The agreement brings the property to 100% leased, with an 85-month lease beginning January 1, 2027.

Indianapolis is an important part of our growth, with transportation connections that help businesses move goods and reach customers. We’re investing here for the long term, delivering the quality space our clients need and supporting the communities we serve.

Aurora marked the start of that investment. Located in the Mount Comfort Corridor, the property was our first development in Greater Indianapolis, built in partnership with Washington Capital and United Bank. We’ve continued to grow our presence since then, most recently with I-65 Whiteland, our third development in the market. 

This full-building lease is another step forward, connecting more than 1 million SF of industrial space with a business ready to put it to use.

Thank you to our tenant and everyone who helped bring this deal together: our partners at Washington Capital; Jennifer Sweeney, Rich Leeret, and Michael Sierra; our listing brokers at Colliers, Cam Kucic and Korey Ryan; the JLL team representing the tenant, Charlotte Elstob, Dan McGillicuddy, and Steve Schwegman; and our Merus employee-owners. 

We look forward to welcoming our tenant to Aurora.
