Overview
Hazleton Multi-Tenant Industrial Complex
The Silk Building in Hazleton, Pennsylvania, is a multi-tenant industrial complex with approximately 550,000 square feet across five floors. The property is near the I-81 corridor, placing it within a 300-mile radius of 25 percent of the U.S. population, offering logistical reach to metropolitan markets including Allentown, Philadelphia, New York City, Harrisburg, and Baltimore. The building features oversized floor plates of approximately 110,000 square feet, heavy power, generous loading capacity, excellent ceiling heights, and fully heated interiors with recent LED upgrades. The current ownership has invested over $1,000,000 in capital improvements, bringing the building to 60% occupancy. The property sits on 9.51 acres and features 22 loading docks, 7 drive-ins, 12 exterior doors, two steel freight elevators, and heavy-duty power (400 amps, 120-240 volts). The property is suited for traditional warehouse, manufacturing, flex, and distribution leasing, and sectors such as AI infrastructure, robotics, data centers, call centers, and self-storage. The property's structural characteristics and clear spans also make it a candidate for a full or partial residential conversion, supported by Pennsylvania’s Mixed-Use Housing Development Pilot Program. The location provides access to Interstates 80, 81, 84, 380, and 476. The civilian labor force within commuting distance is over 343,000.
