Industry Moves Here.
Winlock Industrial Park® is positioned at the I-5 / SR-505 interchange in Lewis County—where industrial land, interstate access, utility-ready development, and a broader logistics corridor come together.
Public project materials describe a 63.03-acre shovel-ready light-industrial site, fully entitled for buildings from 75,000 to 530,100 square feet and marketed as being above the 100-year floodplain.
Not Just Land. A Position in the Freight Economy.
Industrial users make long-term decisions around movement: how raw materials arrive, how product leaves, where trucks turn, whether utilities are ready, how quickly a building can start, and how operations hold up when regional infrastructure is under pressure. Winlock Industrial Park® is compelling because the public project record brings those questions together in one I-5 corridor location.
Interstate-First Access
The SR-505 interchange at I-5 provides a practical north-south freight orientation for companies connecting Southwest Washington, Oregon, Puget Sound, and broader Pacific Northwest markets.

The train footage is a visual reminder of the industrial economy that surrounds the I-5 corridor: long-haul movement, distribution, manufacturing, warehousing, and companies that depend on reliable connections. It is not a statement that a rail spur serves this particular site.

This satellite overview places Winlock in the regional geography that shapes its value: Chehalis and Centralia to the north, I-5 through the middle of the corridor, US 12 to the east, and Toledo / the Cowlitz Valley to the south. It is a helpful visual for users evaluating workforce, suppliers, truck routes, and regional access.
When Water Affects the Region, Elevation and Access Matter More.
The Chehalis River Basin is a recurring flood-risk environment. During major storm events, roads, bridges, utility systems, employee travel, and freight schedules can be affected. For industrial operations, flood-risk planning is a continuity-of-business issue—not merely a box on a development checklist.
Public Floodplain Positioning
Benaroya’s public Winlock materials describe the site as above the 100-year floodplain. That is a meaningful positioning point, but it must be verified for the exact parcel through current FEMA mapping, survey data, engineering, finished-floor elevations, and local jurisdiction review.

Flood events can affect local roads, bridges, utilities, access routes, staff movement, and deliveries. A site’s direct flood exposure is only one part of a larger operational-resilience assessment.

Use FEMA maps, survey and geotechnical work, drainage reports, stormwater design, utilities studies, road-access review, and emergency-route planning before making a land, lease, construction, or investment decision.

This video is included as a historical visual reference for visitors who ask about Penske and the continuing logistics interest tied to the Winlock Industrial Park name. It helps explain why the I-5 / SR-505 corridor attracts calls from truckers, drivers, logistics businesses, land buyers, and industrial users.
