Bellingham has a great need for more industrial and manufacturing businesses that promote livable wage jobs and expand Bellingham’s tax base. Currently there are a limited number of available industrial business parks with buildings for sale. The three main areas that the City of Bellingham has dedicated for industrial use are the Irongate Business Park, property located at the northern border of the city limits on the east side of Guide Meridian, and the lower portion of the Sunnlyland Neighborhood located just north of Bellingham High School.

The Irongate business park off Bakerview and Hannegan is the largest industrial business park in Bellingham. There is currently industrial zoned land, industrial buildings, and commercial condos available for sale. During the mid to late 2000”s real estate boom there was a flood of commercial warehouse condos constructed countywide but Irongate Business Park holds the highest density. Many of those commercial condos are still available.

A majority of the industrial land located east of the Guide Meridian is zoned for larger parcels. This is good location for businesses that need a significant yard for their inventory along with all weather shipping and receiving. Many of these industrial parcels are 5 and 10 acres in size.

The industrial zoned property located in lower Sunnyland is well established. Most of the commercial businesses and buildings in this area have been in Bellingham for a long time. Before Bellingham expanded, this was the originally area zoned for industrial businesses. The advantage of businesses being located in this area is the proximity to supporting vendors and to downtown Bellingham.

In addition to the major three industrial areas previously mentioned, there are also small pockets of industrial zoning scattered throughout Bellingham. Some of this property is owned by the Port of Bellingham and leased to private businesses. These properties are primarily located along the waterfront in Fairhaven and downtown Bellingham, or near the airport.
