Stonecrest Business Park: Pad-Ready Industrial Sites in Lawrence County
A 205-acre privately developed business park planned for up to 1.5 million square feet of industrial space, with major approvals, public support, pad-ready sites, and direct PA Route 18 access.
Project overview
A new privately developed industrial park for Lawrence County.
Stonecrest Business Park in New Beaver Borough is the first privately developed business park in Lawrence County in more than forty years. John LaCarte, through Stonecrest Business Park, LP, acquired the 205-acre former Stonecrest Golf Course in March 2021.
The project has received all necessary permits and approvals from the Pennsylvania DEP, the Army Corps of Engineers, Lawrence County, New Beaver Borough, and Wampum Borough. The development plan includes up to 1.5 million square feet of industrial space, potentially creating 750 to 1,000 new jobs in the region. This project is also expected to boost the tax base of Lawrence County, New Beaver Borough, and the Mohawk School District by a minimum of $150 million at full build-out.

Approvals, infrastructure, and capital
The development groundwork is already assembled.
Public approvals, financial support, tax abatement, roadway investment, and pad work reduce the amount of uncertainty between site evaluation and an industrial project moving forward.

Development plan
Pad-ready sites and flex industrial space designed to shorten the path to occupancy.
Lots 2 and 3, at 17.3 and 27.8 acres, are prepared as pad-ready industrial sites. Public assistance offsets the site work, utility extensions, roadway improvements, and pad work, in a phase estimated to exceed $12.5 million.
On Lot 2, we are developing a 150,000 sq ft flex industrial building to bring the first industrial investment and jobs to the park. It goes up ahead of a tenant for a reason: most companies cannot wait out planning, permitting, and construction when they need a new location.
The building is designed for up to three companies and an expected 175 jobs. It answers current demand for Class A industrial space averaging 135,000 sq ft, a size Lawrence County has lacked.
