PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 17, 2025 – JLL Capital Markets announced today the sale of a 251,043-square-foot, mission-critical distribution facility at 12316 Molly Pitcher Highway in Greencastle, Pennsylvania.
JLL represented the seller, Atapco Properties, Inc., in the transaction.
The Class A warehouse and distribution facility sits on 32.80 acres and is fully leased to the United States Government. Completed in 2023, the state-of-the-art cross-dock facility features 32-foot clear heights, 45 dock-high doors, three drive-in doors and 130-foot truck court depth. The property includes substantial infrastructure with 300 off-dock trailer parking spaces, 125 car parking spaces, vehicle repair and wash bays and climate-controlled storage areas.
Located immediately adjacent to Interstate 81 on the Pennsylvania-Maryland border, the property provides strategic access to major Mid-Atlantic distribution networks and population centers. The facility's position along this critical logistics corridor enables connectivity to more than 50% of the nation's population within a one-day truck drive, including major metropolitan markets such as Baltimore, Washington, D.C., Philadelphia and New York.
The sale reflects the robust fundamentals driving Central Pennsylvania's industrial market, which continues to attract institutional capital seeking stable, long-term investments. The region maintains an exceptionally tight 3.6% vacancy rate with strong momentum from 6.97 million square feet of net absorption year-to-date.
The JLL Investment Sales and Advisory team included Senior Managing Director John Plower and Senior Director Ryan Cottone. JLL's Government Investor Services team, including Senior Managing Directors Austin Sanders and Howard Traul III, provided specialized advisory services for the government-leased asset.
"Located in the sought-after I-81 Logistics Corridor, the property offered the opportunity to acquire a highly functional asset with long-term returns and bond-like stability," said Plower. "The strengthening Central Pennsylvania industrial market, characterized by tight vacancy rates and limited supply pipeline, continues to attract institutional capital seeking stable, long-term investments in prime logistics locations."
