On August 31, the Moreno Valley, CA city council approved construction of the World Logistics Center (WLC) business park, which it described as the largest, single industrial development project in California’s history.

Designed for large, global company’s operations, the 2,610-acre, WLC campus will feature advanced technologies, innovative architecture, environmental design, water-conservation strategies and clean technologies. The press release said WLC is poised to become one of the preeminent business centers nationally and globally and will be one of the most sustainable developments, incorporating the highest environmental standards, of its kind.

The WLC campus design calls for development of up to 40.6 million sq. ft. of industrial, high-cube logistics facilities, office space and other support facilities. This site is at the junction of two major highways (SR-60 and I-215), which places it within overnight delivery range to 11 western states and within expedient reach to over 200 million customers.

A Highland Fairview press release says Moreno Valley is home to such companies as Proctor & Gamble, Amazon, Sketchers USA, Deckers Outdoor, Philips Electronics, Harman Kardon, Walgreens, Serta Mattress, Aldi Foods and Fisker Automotive. The management company said WLC will yield an estimated 13,000 construction jobs and 20,000 permanent jobs and will contribute approximately $2.5 billion annually in economic activity.
