Taurus Investment Holdings bought a 51-building Chicago-area industrial portfolio for $201 million from Rosemont-based Venture One Real Estate.

The purchase, which includes buildings throughout the Chicago area, closes out Taurus US Logistics Fund I, LP. The fund was used to buy 117 buildings totaling 8.4 million square feet in five states. Taurus closed the fund in April 2017 after amassing $157 million in equity commitments.

Boston-based private equity company Taurus said the Chicago-area purchase totals 2.9 million square feet with total occupancy rate of 92 percent.
