Molto Properties Breaking Ground on Big-Box Industrial in Minooka and Romeoville 

Molto Properties is slated to break ground later this month on two logistics parks totaling more than two million square feet in Minooka and Romeoville, IL. VP Kevin Mohoney and senior principal Mike Powers will lead the multi-building projects.  

Minooka Ridge Business Park will be a multi-phase logistics park that can accommodate up to 1.7 million square feet of new distribution facilities. Phase I construction includes a 1,159,670-square-foot, cross-dock distribution facility, with completion slated for the second quarter of 2023.

Molto is also developing Weber55 Logistics Park, a two-building logistics park in Romeoville. Building I will span 627,840 square feet, while Building II will be 270,000 square feet. Both are scheduled for Q2 2023 delivery.

“With existing big-box vacancy below 2% in both submarkets, the area remains greatly underserved,” said Mohoney.

Colliers’ Jim Estus and Matthew Stauber have been retained to market the projects for lease.
