i-Port 12 represents one of the largest, most visible redevelopment projects in New Jersey. The site encompasses approximately 133 acres located directly at Interchange 12 of the New Jersey Turnpike, just 2 exits south of Newark International Airport and the Port of Newark. The tract has historically been utilized as a municipal waste landfill and has sat idle and unproductive since the 1970's. Since that time, the local municipality has been under a Court Decree to properly close the landfill. The designation of Panattoni Development Company and Slayton Development to redevelop the property has satisfied that requirement as well as put the acreage back to productive use thereby creating tax ratables and employment for the local economy.
This development provides two, state-of-the-art facilities in Phase 1. Building "A" is +/- 1,064,000 square feet of cross dock warehouse and Building "B" is 201,000 square feet of single side loaded warehouse. Both facilities will provide 36 feet of clear height, oversized bays of 80' by 72' ESFR fire suppression systems and a high ratio of dock door positions with trailer parking. the facilities have been designed to permit multi-tenancy allowing maximum flexibility in answering the local market demands.
