Falcon Landing Wins Approvals for Warehouse, Distribution Facility
“Our project team worked very hard to put forward
a sensible plan that is rooted
in community input, prioritizes protection
of sensitive resources, and delivers economic- development benefits to Westfield.”
In a location that once thrived as part of a com- puter manufacturing facility for Digital Equip- ment Corp., a joint-venture development team of
Winstanley Enterprises LLC and NorthPoint Devel- opment is moving forward with approved plans to build a general warehouse and distribution facility. The recently obtained state and local approvals for the sought-after location come as the warehouse and distribution sector continues to thrive.
Falcon Landing is an approved 524,000-square- foot, state-of-the-art general distribution facility that will be constructed for one or two tenants adjacent to Westfield-Barnes Regional Airport on Falcon Drive in Westfield. The 126-acre parcel will include 362 parking spaces to accommodate two employ- ee shifts and 322 tractor-trailer spaces. The site boasts easy accessibility and is located about two and a half miles from Mass Pike exit 41.
Last August, the joint-venture development team focused its multi-disciplinary group of planners, engineers, and architects on developing a scaled- down distribution facility at this location. After
they listened to neighborhood concerns, the site plan incorporated a meticulously designed robust stormwater-management plan and preservation of
Falcon
Falcon Landing will be located just north of Westfield- Barnes Regional Airport.
