Mericle Building Home Depot Warehouse

PITTSTON TOWNSHIP, PA-Mericle Commercial Real Estate Services is building a 465,600-square-foot distribution facility here for Home Depot. The building, which will be leased to the retailer, is going up in the CenterPoint Commerce & Trade Park, and the developer expects to complete it next year.

CenterPoint started construction in 2005, and so far 17 buildings are part of the development with tenants including FedEx, Men’s Wearhouse, Kimberly-Clark and others. After the completion of the Home Depot facility, total square footage at the site will approach five million square feet.

Home Depot will be the first building on the west side of CenterPoint, which has room for two million square feet of further development, says a Mericle spokesman. The east side of the project, where all current tenants are located, has room for “millions more” square feet of development.
