Warehouse proposed for Long Beach faces opposition

A warehouse proposed for Long Beach’s North Park neighborhood has run up against objections from city officials who say it would overwhelm the area with trucks and air pollution.

Silver Rock Development plans to use as the warehouse as distribution hub, with up to 50 trucks making daily deliveries to Kennedy Airport and destinations on Long Island.

The developer plans to meet with Long Beach officials and say they will move the truck bays to the building’s north side to reduce activity near the residential areas.
