229 acres in New Ventures Commercial Park with approvals for two warehouse distribution buildings totaling over 2,000,000SF. Sold to Exeter Blakeslee Lot 100 Land LLC who is building a 1,000,000 SF distribution center to be tenanted by American Tire Distributors. “This sale has been a decade in the making. After working with all local, state and federal agencies, the sellers were finally able to provide a shovel-ready site which allowed us to attract the right buyer and tenant. The project is particularly gratifying for me, not only as the broker, but also as the Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors for The Pocono Mountains Economic Development Corporation. Hundreds of jobs will be created and make a significant contribution to the economy of Monroe County and Northeast Pennsylvania.”
