01 The airport side

Pittsburgh International covers 10,000 acres in Moon and Findlay townships. Findlay Township holds the terminal and about half the airport's land.

02 Roads

Interstate 376, the Parkway West, links Moon to Pittsburgh, and a Business Loop of it serves the airport. Interchanges on I-79 are nearby.

03 Other employers

The 911th Airlift Wing of the Air Force Reserve and the 171st Air Refueling Wing of the Pennsylvania Air National Guard are based at the airport, and Robert Morris University sits along University Boulevard, so the township's freight is mixed.

04 Pallets

Air freight has its own pallet rules, set by airlines, so treat the table as starting points.

05 Business parks around the airport

Cherrington Corporate Center, completed in 1997, is seven buildings of about 455,000 square feet, with access to Beaver Grade Road. Pittsburgh International Business Park, being built by a joint venture on Cherrington Parkway, had its first two buildings open and a third under way according to the Moon Patch. Airfield Gates Commerce Park, at 571 Moon Clinton Road, is a Class A industrial site beside the airport.

06 Findlay Township

Findlay Township holds Pittsburgh International's terminal and about half of its land. Printing, sporting goods and business parks fill the rest.

Airport cargo

In 2019 the airport won an $18.7 million federal grant toward a $30 million cargo processing facility beside its existing cargo buildings along Business 376. Cargo and mail through the airport came to about 183.2 million pounds in 2016 and 191.4 million in 2025.

Business parks and printing

Since 1979 RIDC has developed business and research park property beside the airport. Dick's Sporting Goods is headquartered in the township, and the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has run a large printing facility in the Clinton area since mid-2014.

Neighbours

Moon Township lies east and northeast, North Fayette southeast, Robinson Township across the Washington County line to the southwest, and Independence Township in Beaver County northwest.

Pallet pattern

  • Cargo buildings: skids and covers for freight, often airline-specific.
  • Sporting goods distribution: 48 x 40 in cartons.
  • Printing: newsprint rolls and paper stock on custom or heavy-duty pallets.

Business parks at the Westport interchange

Westport Business Park, in Imperial in Findlay Township, is a light industrial and flex complex of about 75,000 square feet at the Westport interchange of the Pennsylvania Turnpike 576, about three miles from I-376 and the airport.

A site like this suits small shippers who want an airport-corridor address without a large building: an e-commerce seller, a parts distributor or a regional warehouse.

07 North Fayette

North Fayette Township sits southwest of the airport, crossed by US 22, US 30 and I-376. Retail, equipment dealers and light industry make its pallet trade steady and small.

The shape of the township

It borders eight neighbours, among them Findlay to the northwest, Moon to the north and Robinson to the northeast, McDonald to the south and Collier to the east. The Pointe at North Fayette combines retail plazas, big-box stores, hotels and offices, beside Robinson Town Centre, the Mall at Robinson and Settlers Ridge. Park Lane Office centre has been here since 1989.

Who ships here

Pittsburgh Technical College and the Community College of Allegheny County are on McKee Road. H&K Equipment is based in the township. Retail and equipment are what the roads reach: receiving docks behind the big boxes and dealer yards.

Industrial parks by the airport corridor

North Fayette Industrial Park is described in a Cushman and Wakefield brochure as a Class A development of nearly a million square feet, planned as eight or nine buildings of about 100,000 square feet each, for light manufacturing, warehousing, research and flex use. RIDC's Park West Manor on Industry Drive adds a 60,000-square-foot flex building.

Warehouses here lean on the nearby airport and on US 22 and I-376 for access, so the freight is parcel, retail stock and light assembly rather than heavy commodities.
