master-planned

CBRE's Greater Philadelphia/Harrisburg industrial brokerage team, including Harrisburg-based SVPs Patrick Lafferty and Michael Hess and senior associate Bart Anderson, will market the logistics park to a variety of prospective tenants. "We are not targeting any specific industry, but the cross-dock design makes this a valuable option for any retail or big box tenant," Hess tells GlobeSt.com.

The cross-dock format will figure in all three of the bulk distribution facilities planned for Key Logistics Park, including the 1.1-million-sf Building One that Lauth expects to complete by May 2009. "Although Building One offers the flexibility to accommodate up to three tenants, it is ideally suited for a single user of the entire 1.1-million sf," Hess says. Lauth plans more than 120 dock doors, 32-foot clear height, and space to park more than 270 trailers for Building One, as GlobeSt.com previously reported.

Hess notes that the upcoming park will offer "high visibility off Interstate 81, proximity to major consumer centers within a day's drive, UPS and FedEx hubs, less than truck load carriers and Norfolk Southern and CSX intermodal rail yards." He adds that the site will provide "extensive trailer parking and full 360-degree movement around the buildings" and is one mile from I-81's Exit 37, "which is only seven miles south of the overly congested and heavily populated industrial Exit 44."
