Colliers has launched the auction of a vacant flex property at 954 Marcon Boulevard in Allentown, Lehigh County, Pennsylvania, positioning the asset to capture demand in the Lehigh Valley industrial corridor. The building totals 30,100 square feet and is located on a 3.44-acre site within an established industrial park, surrounded by other flex and industrial facilities.
The Colliers team of Vice Chair Jacklene Chesler, Senior Vice President Patrick Norris and Transaction Manager Brittany Leventoff is exclusively marketing the auction in partnership with Ten-X. Their assignment focuses on bringing the vacant building to a buyer pool seeking flexible industrial space that can accommodate a range of operational needs.
The property features clear heights ranging from 18 to 22 feet, supporting a variety of light industrial and logistics uses. Existing infrastructure includes two loading docks and 2,500-amp three-phase power, providing an electrical backbone suitable for users with heavier power requirements such as manufacturing, assembly or technology operations.
Conceptual plans prepared for the site envision upgrading the existing configuration to a more distribution-friendly layout. The plans contemplate converting the building into a flex facility with four loading docks instead of the current two. This potential dock-intensive configuration is intended to better align the property with requirements from distribution, manufacturing, assembly, technology, life sciences and service-oriented users that rely on efficient loading and circulation.
Location is a central aspect of the offering. The property sits within the broader Lehigh Valley industrial corridor, an area that has seen sustained industrial and logistics activity. It is less than one mile from Lehigh Valley International Airport, which serves as a major distribution hub for FedEx. This proximity positions the building to benefit from airport-related freight flows and regional last-mile distribution patterns, subject to future user requirements.
Colliers notes that vacant, well-located flex product has become increasingly difficult to source in the Lehigh Valley. Against that backdrop, a fully vacant, power-heavy flex building in an established industrial park near a major air cargo hub is expected to draw attention from users and investors seeking optionality in how they deploy the space. The auction format, conducted with Ten-X, provides a defined marketing process and timeframe for bidders while allowing the brokerage team to highlight the property’s physical attributes and location-driven advantages.
As the auction moves forward, the marketing effort will center on the building’s combination of functional clear heights, existing loading infrastructure, robust power capacity and adjacency to a major logistics node. Those characteristics, together with conceptual plans that show a path to additional loading capability, frame the asset as a flexible platform for a range of industrial and flex users looking to access the Lehigh Valley industrial corridor.
