Rexford Industrial Project

The Rexford Industrial Project, managed by the City of Norwalk Community Development Department, involves the redevelopment of a 7.03-acre lot located at 14830 Carmenita Road, Norwalk, California. The scope of work includes the demolition of two existing multi-tenant industrial warehouse buildings totaling 89,870 square feet and the construction of a new 138,972 square foot industrial warehouse. This new facility will feature 132,227 square feet of warehouse space, 3,715 square feet of ground floor office space, and 3,030 square feet of mezzanine space. Site improvements will include an off-street parking lot with 141 passenger car spaces, including 6 ADA stalls, ornamental landscaping, and 5-foot-wide sidewalks to ensure ADA pedestrian access from Excelsior Drive. The project has undergone extensive environmental review in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act, resulting in a Mitigated Negative Declaration. Technical assessments have addressed noise and vibration impacts for 24/7 operations, air quality, greenhouse gas emissions, and health risks, all of which were determined to be below significance thresholds. Additional studies include a preliminary hydrology plan for stormwater management, a paleontological assessment, and a cultural resources study. The project was approved under Precise Development Plan No. 2023-06, with the City Council denying an appeal of the approval on January 20, 2026. Primary points of contact include Alex Hamilton, Interim Director of Community Development for the City of Norwalk, and Ben Martin, Senior Project Manager for Rexford Industrial.
