As per the masterplan, Lincoln will redevelop the project and construct up to eight buildings, as well as new roads, infrastructure and landscaping.
Lincoln Equities Group senior director of development Robert Schenkel said: "We wanted the ability to tailor each new building based on individual user requirements, and the Planning Board’s preliminary site plan approval grants us the flexibility to do this.
"This modern, state-of-the-art, customised development is ideal for ‘high cube’ distribution companies that require multimodal transportation access."
The industrial site is situated one mile from Interstate 287 and will be used by distribution and warehousing companies to store high volume products. Said to be in proximity to Port Newark / Elizabeth, the site is serviceable by ‘F Plate’ rail cars.
