Principle is constructing a new 100,000-square-foot warehouse at 350 N. Wolf Road in Mount Prospect, Illinois. Principle’s client, Stotan Industrial, is developing the new speculative warehouse in the center of Mount Prospect’s central business district because of its close proximity to major expressways and airport cargo facilities.
“This project is a great example of re-purposing a non-performing site. We demolished the former Comcast office facility which had been vacant for quite some time and worked closely with Stotan to address a myriad of planning and zoning matters as well as civil engineering issues. The stormwater management for the new industrial building is comprised of a complex combination of underground stormwater retention vaults and wet ponds” says Principle Senior Project Manager Jim Greco, who is the principal on the project. “The building’s attractive front elevation will give it maximum visibility from Wolf Road and have a great deal of flexibility to adapt to any tenants needs.”
The industrial facility will boast 32-foot clear height, and two drive-in doors. To accommodate a variety of tenants the facility will include 2,000 amps of power and a roof-mounted MUA heating and ventilation system. A modern ESFR fire protection system, 45 mil EPDM ballasted roof, and 96 parking spaces, of which five are handicapped, 28 trailer parking spaces and 12 docks add to the building’s appeal.
The Principle team is expected to complete construction by the end of November 2023. Principle’s Jim Greco is working as senior project manager while Principle’s Mark Frane serves as director of field operations. Harris Architects will serve as project architect.
