The lease will facilitate the demolition of the Port’s old warehouse on the property and the subsequent development of a 700,000-square-foot, two-story light industrial warehouse. The new facility will be able to support e-commerce, manufacturers, and logistics providers that support maritime industries.
The Terminal 106 development will play a role in supporting the cargo handling and logistics sector of the Port’s maritime operations.
From a regional traffic standpoint, by shortening the distance from the container terminal to last-mile destinations, the building’s location can help limit the number of trucks freighting cargo down I-5 from Seattle to as far as south of Tacoma, managing traffic, noise, and air pollution in the region.
The project will provide approximately 140 prevailing wage construction jobs during the build out of the property and will support approximately 650 to 1200 full-time employees with an estimated payroll of more than $28 million annually, providing apprenticeship training opportunities during construction.
The building is expected to be complete by 2024.
