The 112 acres of land under Great America in California were sold in 2022 for around $ 310 million in Prologis, a warehouse and supply chain logistics company.

The six -year rental contract was initially scheduled for June 30, 2028 with an option to extend the terms of additional five years to 2033.
The rental contract gave Prologis the right to terminate the lease early with a two -year notice.
