WARREN, MI-The former war supply headquarters here will now provide help to automakers. Noble International Ltd. of Detroit is expected to sign a lease with Carpenters' Pension Trust fund by the end of March.

WARREN, MI-Noble International Ltd. of Detroit is going to make the former Warren tank plant it’s new headquarters. The automotive supplier is taking over at least 487,000-sf of the 1.1 million-sf manufacturing building that was left in 1996 by the Army, which used to build tanks at the site.

Since then, the property has sat vacant with little takers for leasing. Carpenters’ Pension Trust fund, Detroit and Vicinity became the new owners in January when they bought out former partner Crudo Equities LLC of Warren for 78 acres on the 153-acre plant property, including the large warehouse and manufacturing space.

“Noble will bring in hundreds of jobs, and jump-start the redevelopment of the project,” Dan Labes, senior vice president of Grubb and Ellis of Southfield, told GlobeSt.com. His company is marketing the site, now known as the Warren Commerce Center.
