The Port of Philadelphia’s ongoing plan to expand its physical footprint is taking another step forward with the approval of a new warehouse. 

The port on Thursday received a zoning permit to build a storage, distribution and logistics facility on 3060 S. 61st St. by the Schuylkill River. The 277,200-square-foot warehouse is being planned on a more than 15-acre site at what is now an overflow parking lot owned by the Port of Philadelphia, according to plans filed with the city. It would also have 253 parking spaces. 

The Southwest Philadelphia warehouse and distribution facility would be built by DH Property Holdings, which has a number of other local industrial buildings in the works totaling more than 2 million square feet.
