648 Manor Street

Positioned along a key corridor in Lancaster City, this large-scale facility offers a rare, near turn-key opportunity for cold storage or food distribution users seeking to establish or expand operations in the Lancaster market. It also provides a potential opportunity to retrofit as a data center, with a combination of gas (UGI) & grid power (PPL) combining for 20 MW+ of capacity already in place. Originally purpose-built for freezer and food storage use, the property features existing racking in place and included in the lease, significantly reducing startup time and capital expense. The space requires installation of new cooling equipment to be brought back online. The original ammonia-based refrigeration system (circa 1996) remains in place but is not operational, allowing an incoming tenant flexibility to install a modern system tailored to current needs. The primary 32,625 SF building is configured as follows: 19,840 SF of freezer space with 38-foot clear ceiling heights and racking in place 8,785 SF of dry storage, shipping, and handling space 4,000 SF of office, restrooms, and cafeteria space, supporting on-site operations The facility is equipped with six loading docks, including one drive-in door, with dock doors measuring 11 x 8, allowing for efficient refrigerated logistics and truck circulation.
