YORK, PA. — Chicago-based First Industrial Realty Trust has broken ground for the development of Commerce Park in York. The 1.1 million-square-foot manufacturing plant and distribution center is being developed as a build-to-suit project for Church & Dwight Co. (C&D). The household products manufacturer will consolidate the company’s central New Jersey operations into the new location. The building is situated on 232 acres, and has expansion capability of up to 1.9 million square feet. The project is also seeking LEED certification. First Industrial, which is developing the project, also sold the site to C&D. Joseph McDermott and James Carter of CB Richard Ellis’ Wayne, Pa., office and Mindy Lissner of the company’s East Brunswick, N.J., office negotiated the build-to-suit transaction. The total project cost is expected to exceed $170 million.
