The county record describes a new storage building of about 201,616 square feet on Block 276, Lot 10.01 in Rahway. It is classed as moderate-hazard storage, which is a building-code category for the kind of goods stored. The record does not name a developer.

The size matches the larger of two modern warehouse buildings that Woodmont Industrial Partners and Sagard Real Estate are building at 349 and 389 New Brunswick Avenue. This is probably the same project, but no source gave the block and lot numbers, so the link is not confirmed. That 25-acre site used to hold an older industrial building of about 212,000 square feet, which the project replaces. A smaller second building of about 76,000 square feet is planned beside it. Trade coverage reported groundbreaking in mid-2026 and expected completion in early 2027. No tenant has been named publicly.
