“Rockefeller Group is excited to have completed the sale of the final building at Rockefeller Group Logistics Park and looks forward to developing more projects in Lehigh Valley in the future,” said Zac Csik, Vice President, Rockefeller Group NJ/PA Development. “It was a pleasure working with the teams at JLL and Link Logistics on the project as Link continues to grow its portfolio in the Northeast.”
