BLC Builders is proud to have won Best Industrial Tenant Improvement through our Arrow Electronics project at the NAIOP CRE awards on March 7, 2026.
The annual NAIOP CRE awards highlight the most outstanding commercial real estate projects that have transformed our local landscape and recognize exceptional individuals and teams who have made a significant impact on the industry. This is achieved through a variety of different project and industry award categories, such as industrial tenant improvement, development firm, office building, brokerage firm, and more.
The Arrow Electronics tenant improvement was a fast-tracked industrial buildout at an existing 198,000-square-foot warehouse located at the Airway Commerce Center. The project included significant electrical and lighting upgrades, high-panel power distribution, warehouse conditioning with multiple 25-ton HVAC units, dock equipment installation, racking, security systems, and office buildout. We are so proud of the work that went into the Arrow Electronics Tenant Improvement, and we are beyond thrilled to see it receive the recognition it deserves.
Additional congratulations to the owner/developer, Tolles Development, and project architect, K2 Engineering & Structural Design, for the win. This win was a collaborative effort and would not have been possible without our partnership.
This recognition means so much to our team, and we are endlessly grateful. Being among the winners of the NAIOP CRE Awards is a true testament to the dedication, professionalism, and efficiency BLC Builders brings to every project.

Join these sports icons in an exhilarating Home Run Derby event that aims to hit cancer out of the park. Learn more about the lineup and the mission behind this inspiring fundraiser.
Mark and Courtney Folgner make the most of each day. In essence, they seize the day. It’s something they’ve committed to since first meeting in 2007. They are an active family who isn’t afraid of trying new adventures or getting out of their comfort zone. Case in point, at age 38, Mark saw how much his son Freddy, 9, enjoyed playing hockey for the first time at Reno Ice so he decided to join an adult hockey league of his own. Now Mark and Freddy can practice playing hockey together.
In a significant stride towards enhancing the Boomtown experience, BLC Builders have officially kicked off construction activities. This development promises to elevate the charm of this iconic location, offering visitors and locals alike a multitude of new amenities and entertainment options.
