CenterPoint Intermodal Center - Joliet

Close

CenterPoint Intermodal Center - Joliet (CIC-Joliet) is a logistics center and inland port located on 3,600 acres approximately 40 miles southwest of downtown Chicago that opened in 2010. It has since been combined with the existing CenterPoint Intermodal Center - Elwood, home to BNSF Logistics Park, two miles to the south, to create the contiguous CenterPoint Intermodal Center - Joliet/Elwood. The combined 6,400-acre intermodal facility is the nation's largest inland port. CenterPoint Properties Trust (CenterPoint) is the master developer of the CIC-Joliet facility and leases parcels to tenants on which they can operate and manage their freight and logistics activities. CenterPoint manages four other intermodal centers around the country. Of CIC-Joliet's 3,600 acres, 1,900 acres were earmarked for the construction of 20 million square feet of industrial facilities (warehousing, distribution, manufacturing, etc.) and 400 acres for container management yards. In 2010, Union Pacific completed construction of a 785-acre Class I intermodal facility, the Joliet Intermodal Terminal. In addition to the Union Pacific Terminal, CIC-Joliet is zoned to accommodate one other Class I intermodal facility .
