The 35.4-acre property currently belongs to the city of Dayton, according to Montgomery County Auditor real estate records.
The commercial and industrial real estate development company says it plans to construct a facility for an end use of e-commerce and distribution. The project is expected to begin this summer and complete in mid-2022.
The company declined to identify the end user, but it has built half a dozen massive facilities around the airport that have brought thousands of new jobs.
The company also is working to construct two other new facilities around the aviation facility.
BL Companies submitted a request for a building permit for a 141,360 square foot delivery station facility at Lightner Road and Peters Pike.
The firm declined to comment about the project, saying “client confidentiality is paramount.”
But BL Companies has done work for Amazon elsewhere in the nation to help develop new delivery stations for the e-commerce giant.
BL Companies, which is headquartered in Connecticut but has offices in Uniontown, also has done architectural and engineering work for FedEx Ground, the Rockerfeller Group and other companies.
The property is near Chewy’s massive warehouse and distribution facility along Lightner Road, north of the airport.
