CARSON, CA, December 08, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Watson Land Company, one of Southern California's largest industrial real estate developers, has signed two new leases totaling 105,601 square feet. The transactions, which have a combined value of $3.3 million, mark an increase in South Bay leasing activity corresponding with a rise in port traffic.
