The 2.4 million-square-foot Luke Field logistics campus, developed by global, commercial real estate firm Lincoln Property Company and Goldman Sachs in Glendale has achieved LEED Gold v4 for a Core & Shell and Warehouse Distribution Center.

With the certification, Luke Field becomes Arizona’s highest-scoring LEED industrial building, surpassing Lincoln-owned Park303 Phase2, a 2.5 million-square-foot development also in Glendale, by a single point.

Luke Field achieved the LEED certification without relying on renewable energy credit purchases, an uncommon achievement in the region.

“Luke Field – and Park303 before it – prove that we can deliver large-scale industrial development in the Southwest that is both ambitious andsustainable,” Lincoln Vice President of Development Michael Monroe. “The process requires early integration of LEED objectives and modeling stated in a press release, but the outcome is notable. We are extremely proud of its success as a project that sets new benchmarks for the industry.”

Located at 13543 A and 13543 B Northern Ave., and 7733 Litchfield Road, Luke Field spans three Class A industrial buildings: a 695,750-square-foot Building A, 454,761-square-foot Building B and 1.27 million-square-foot Building C. It sits on 140 acres.

In achieving LEED Gold v4 status, Luke Field was evaluated on several categories, including:

  • 59% energy savings through the integration of high-efficiency LEDs and advanced controls, and building systems with R-38 insulated roofing, daylighting features, insulated overhead doors and reflective glazing.
  • 77% total water savings and 87% outdoor water savings through drought-tolerant landscaping and efficient irrigation. This included optimizing the site to reduce runoff, enhance infiltration and mitigate heat island effects.
  • 61% landfill diversion by recycling construction waste and debris instead of placing usable materials in landfills.
  • 20% recycled content through the use of post-consumer and pre-consumer recycled material.

  • 20+ productswith Environmental Product Declarations or Health Product Declarations, encouraging low-impact, responsibly sourced materials and transparency in how a building impacts the environment.

Luke Field secured 45 design credits prior to construction completion, positioning it to achieve full LEED Gold v4 certification without having to purchase renewable energy credits.

The development was also scored on its indoor air quality, strengthened by low-emitting materials such as VOC-compliant paints and formaldehyde-free woods.

“Luke Field’s LEED Gold v4 certification is just one of the ways it delivers beyond traditional industrial expectations. That includes a deep bench of operational and people-focused amenities,” Lincoln Development Director Anthony Villarreal stated in a news release.

Those advantages helped to attract Walmart, who purchased the 1.28-million-square-foot Luke Field Building C in late 2025 for $152 million.
