Lineage Freezer Warehouse

Taking Cold Storage to New Heights

As one of the top employers in the City of Colton—and an essential service provider—Lineage Logistics was looking to create an automate freezer/cold storage facility in Colton, CA. The building’s production would bring hundreds of jobs to the area as well as significant revenue for local contractors, vendors and workers.

Their sites were set on a 450,000+ square feet building that rested on 35 acres. Due to increasingly improved technologies, the height of the building is proposed to be 95 feet at the highest point—higher than the allowed limit. therefore, an exception to the height limit was needed to allow this height.

In order to get this building permit processed, MIG worked on a development application for the Architectural/Site Plan Review to the City of Colton. The plan was approved, making the facility the tallest automated cold storage building in Southern California. Not only that, but the facility is also the first in the Lineage network to generate 100% of its energy consumption on-site—a major advancement in clean energy.
