Southern Berks Industrial Park Secures $2.3M State Grant to Launch First Phase 

A planned 5.5 million-square-foot industrial park in New Morgan, PA, has been awarded a $2.3 million grant through the Pennsylvania Strategic Investments to Enhance Sites (PA SITES) program. The funding will support infrastructure and utility work for the project’s first phase — a 900,000-square-foot light industrial facility on 107 acres. 

The full development, led by Panattoni Development Company, spans approximately 1,200 acres along Route 10 and is expected to bring up to 2,750 jobs to the region. Phase one alone is projected to create 450 jobs, with construction anticipated to begin following local and state approvals. 

Bohler’s Harrisburg team is providing comprehensive and integrated land development consulting services for the Southern Berks Industrial Park. With a track record of designing over 20 million square feet of industrial space across the region, our team brings deep expertise in site civil engineering, permitting, and strategic planning for large-scale logistics and distribution facilities. 

This project marks a significant step in preparing shovel-ready sites across the Commonwealth — part of a broader effort to enhance Pennsylvania’s competitiveness for major business investments.
