The Rockefeller Group Logistics Center is being developed to meet the growing demand for Class A industrial space in the Philadelphia market. The project consists of two speculative one-story warehouse buildings: Building 1 (approximately 318,696 SF) and Building 2 (approximately 338,208 SF). Both facilities feature approximately 3,000 SF of speculative office space and a clear height of 46 feet. The development includes all associated site work and off-site improvements and is being constructed on the former site of Byberry State Hospital, which closed in 1990 and was demolished in 2006.

The construction incorporates synthetic fiber-reinforced concrete for the slab-on-grade system, reducing the number of control joints while creating a more durable surface. The design also features wide clerestory entryways with overhanging concrete panels tied to the structural steel frame, requiring precise coordination between the steel erection and tilt-panel construction teams.

Key Features:

• Roof structure designed to support future solar panel installation.
• Soundwall constructed to separate the warehouse complex from the neighboring residential community.
• Bridge demolition completed as part of the site preparation scope.
• Development located on the historic site of the Philadelphia State Hospital at Byberry.
• Foundations prepared with thermal blocks to accommodate potential future cold-storage capabilities.
