The full picture AI research · Nov 1, 2026
A new storage building of about 146,580 square feet is proposed at 15 Harts Lane in East Brunswick. County records describe it as a moderate-hazard storage building with a reported construction cost of $13.1 million. That makes it a very large warehouse, roughly the footprint of several big-box stores.
A news article from September 2023 about a neighboring site said the township Planning Board had approved a roughly 146,000 sq ft warehouse at 15 Harts Lane. The applicant was Harts XNJ, LLC. The approval included loading docks and accessory car and trailer parking. The article said construction had already started. It gave no year for the approval, though the article's web address hints at October 2022. This appears to be the same project, but that match is not confirmed.
No tenant was found. Nearby, a separate project at 12 Harts Lane proposed replacing an auto-recycling building with two warehouses.
What it could mean nearby
- Harts Lane is an industrial street, and a warehouse of this size would likely add truck and trailer traffic. No traffic study was found.
- Loading docks and trailer parking show the site is meant for freight use.
- The neighboring 12 Harts Lane proposal suggests the street is becoming more warehouse-focused.
- No records found on new homes, schools or open space effects.
Where it stands
The Planning Board reportedly approved a warehouse at this address, and construction was said to have started. The county's January 2024 filing suggests building permits and reviews were still moving ahead. Next steps usually are construction inspections and a certificate of occupancy before a tenant moves in.
