±8.5-acre industrial outdoor storage (IOS) site available for sale or lease at 611 South Albert Street in Allentown, Pennsylvania, one of the most active industrial submarkets in the Lehigh Valley. Zoned I-3 General Industrial, the property is ideally suited for outdoor storage, trailer/container parking, trucking terminal operations, laydown yard use, equipment staging, distribution, and a wide range of other industrial uses permitted by right or by special exception under Allentown's I-3 zoning code.
The site offers approximately 350 trailer parking spaces and potential direct rail access via the adjacent Norfolk Southern rail line, positioning it as a rare heavy-industrial yard opportunity with rail-served development potential. Infrastructure at the property is exceptional for an industrial outdoor storage or manufacturing user: two 18-inch water pipelines deliver unlimited water usage rights drawn from the adjacent canal, supported by an on-site pump house with capacity to manage more than 2 million gallons of water per day. Six on-site transformers provide ample power for heavy manufacturing, cold storage, EV fleet charging, or other power-intensive uses, and fiber optic cable runs along the nearby rail line for high-speed connectivity.
Strategically located within the Lehigh Valley's premier industrial and logistics corridor, the property sits approximately 3.0 miles from Route 22, 4.5 miles from Interstate 78, 8.9 miles from the Pennsylvania Turnpike (I-476), 4.2 miles from Lehigh Valley International Airport (ABE), and 5.7 miles from Bethlehem, PA — offering fast, efficient truck access throughout the Lehigh Valley, Greater Philadelphia, and New York/New Jersey metro markets.
The site also presents strong development upside, located within the service area of the Allentown Economic Development Corporation (AEDC), a nonprofit focused on brownfield redevelopment, business incubation, and manufacturing growth throughout the City of Allentown — AEDC-completed projects have generated over $5,000,000 in annual real estate tax revenue for the city, underscoring the strength of redevelopment activity in the immediate area.
