Property Description

32.61-acre development opportunity in the growing Ponchatoula/Hammond submarket, located just 1 mile from Interstate 55 and positioned for immediate design and construction. This strategically located tract offers developers and owner-users a rare combination of scale, infrastructure readiness, natural amenities, and regional connectivity. Situated outside the city limits under Tangipahoa Parish zoning, the property allows for flexible development scenarios including multifamily residential, light industrial or flex business park, and owner-user campus development. Extensive dirt work and site preparation have already been completed, providing a level, cleared foundation ideal for large-scale development and accelerating project timelines while reducing upfront site costs. Bordering Anderson Canal, the property offers a natural amenity that can be incorporated into site design through green space, walking trails, stormwater features, or recreational areas for residents or employees, with water connectivity flowing into Ponchatoula Creek, the Natalbany River, the Tickfaw River, and ultimately Lake Maurepas and the Maurepas Swamp Wildlife Management Area. The site benefits from excellent regional access with Interstate 55 and Highway 22 each approximately 1 mile away, proximity to Hammond MSA as one of Louisiana’s fastest-growing regions, and convenient reach to New Orleans International Airport and the Port of South Louisiana, making this location well-suited for workforce housing, flex industrial development, or an owner-user facility serving the Northshore and Greater New Orleans markets.
