Fulfillment Center – Logan Township

OVERVIEW
Langan provided a variety of services for the design and construction of the fulfillment center located in Logan Township, New Jersey. Design services included layout of the one million-square foot distribution center along with 1,500± passenger vehicle parking stalls, a truck court, and modifications to existing stormwater management basins. The project posed several unique challenges, including frontage improvements, NJDEP Land Use permitting, a lack of sanitary sewer and water and a significant amount of coordination with the various regulatory agencies (Logan Township, NJDEP, NJAW, LTMUA, Gloucester County, USACE, Gloucester County Soil Conservation District, and Tidelands Bureau).

Cranbury Logistics Center

OVERVIEW
Langan prepared a general development plan submission for this 395-acre parcel adjacent to the New Jersey Turnpike. Langan’s integrated team of site/civil, geotechnical and environmental engineers and scientists prepared a design to construct 2.8 million SF of warehouse distribution on approximately 150 acres of the site. The full build-out of the business park includes three cross-dock warehouse buildings and is one of the largest wetland mitigation projects in state history. Proper remediation of the site required impact to nearly 50 acres of contaminated wetlands. In order to minimize impacts to forested areas, sparsely vegetated uplands were excavated to form shallow concave grades to allow water to accumulate in these areas, creating an amphibian habitat. An extended 10-acre stormwater basin was also used to create additional wetlands mitigation by designing planting shelves and islands within the basins to allow for wetland plantings to grow.

Fulfillment Center – Fall River

OVERVIEW
Langan provided a variety of services for the design and construction of the fulfillment center located in Fall River. Design services included layout of the one million-SF distribution center along with 1,500± passenger vehicle parking stalls, a truck court, a rain garden, and a stormwater management basin. Langan met the water quality requirements for the site by designing a rain garden and stormwater management basin as opposed to using numerous expensive water quality manufactured treatment devices. Langan quickly and efficiently prepared and delivered a site plan submission to the regulatory agencies and approvals were obtained in short order, with few comments and very minor revisions.

Fulfillment Center – North Randall

OVERVIEW
This project involved the redevelopment of a former mall - the largest in the world at the time of construction - into an e-commerce fulfillment center. Three former anchor store buildings that remained on the 70-acre site were demolished during the due diligence phase to make way for the new 855,000-SF warehouse. Langan provided a full range of services on the project from due diligence through construction to help shave several months off the typical project delivery timeline. The fast-track nature of the project, and the aspects associated with redevelopment of a former mall site, required the close integration of survey, geotechnical, environmental, site/civil, and traffic services.

Distribution Center – Palm Beach County

OVERVIEW
Located on a 27-acre site, this project includes a 250,000 SF building; 3.5-acre lake; 450 parking spaces; 8-inch diameter water distribution loop; a 2,000-LF, 6-inch diameter sanitary sewer force main extension; and submersible sanitary sewer lift station. Langan prepared site plan documents and processed the plans through the Palm Beach County site plan approval process. The main challenge associated with the project was the compressed site plan approval time schedule required by the client. Langan obtained the site plan approval in four months.

Porta Norte

OVERVIEW
Porta Norte is a 250-hectare development just north of Panama City, next to the Panama Golf Club and just 10 minutes from Tocumen International Airport. Inspired by the Old Quarter of Panama, this project was designed to harken back to the time when communities were tightly-woven networks. To achieve this, the design team looked to new urbanism - a concept founded on the belief that well-designed cities, towns, and neighborhoods build healthier and happier communities where businesses prosper. Langan is providing site/civil and geotechnical services for this project.

Santa Maria Golf & Country Club

OVERVIEW
Santa Maria Golf & Country Club is a high-end, 700-acre mixed-use development located along the Corredur Sur. It includes retail and restaurant space, residences, and a Jack Nicklaus golf course. Langan provided complete site/civil and traffic design for the on-site roads, drainage, and utility infrastructure from the conceptual phase through construction documents. One of the greatest site-specific challenges was the design of over 30 acres of on-site, man-made lakes to act as stormwater management and high-quality site amenities, which will be constructed in fill materials.
