County records describe a storage building on Smith St in Woodbridge Township, Middlesex County, listed as a warehouse and storage use. It would total about 1.09 million square feet of non-residential space. That is roughly the floor area of a very large distribution center. The reported construction cost is about $31.6 million, and the county classes the building as moderate hazard.
The records don't say what is on the site now, who would use the building, or whether the space is one building or several. No news coverage, meeting agendas, or developer pages could be tied to this project. Smaller warehouse proposals on Smith St in the Keasbey area and elsewhere in the township turned up, but their sizes and details don't match these records. They were not treated as the same project. The 1.09 million square foot figure should be read with caution until the township confirms it.
What it could mean nearby
- Warehouses of this size usually bring heavy truck traffic. The records don't include a traffic study, so the actual effect on Smith St is unknown.
- The records don't show how many jobs the building would create or who would occupy it.
Where it stands
The latest county filing is dated 2025-11-18, so the project has reached county review. No township approval or hearing could be confirmed. Next steps usually include township planning board review, a public hearing, and then state and local construction permits.
