"SAN JOSE - North San Jose is one of the Bay Area's primary tech hubs, yet amid the digital giants, a building may be repurposed to accommodate blue-collar tasks such as woodworking and cabinetry jobs. Commercial Casework Inc. is eyeing a building at 150 Nortech Parkway in San Jose for a new industrial operation whose clients, by happenstance, may well include several tech titans."
""New woodworking equipment is to be installed on the shop floor," Commercial Casework states in the proposal that's on file with San Jose city planners. "A new finish spray booth will be installed on the shop floor." The company typically uses equipment such as a table saw, panel saw, sander, and software devices to automate cutting procedures. "We bring in rough or smooth lumber, then sand and/or cut the lumber to various shapes and sizes," Commercial Casework stated in a city planning document."
A 40,400-square-foot building at 150 Nortech Parkway in North San Jose is proposed for conversion into a woodworking and cabinetry manufacturing operation while retaining its exterior. Dollinger Properties acquired the property in 2023 for $9.1 million. The building contains 28,200 square feet of industrial space and 12,200 square feet of offices; a wall would separate the shop floor from offices. New woodworking equipment and a finish spray booth will be installed. Typical equipment will include table saws, panel saws, sanders, and automated cutting software. Materials will include particle board, MDF, plastic laminate, veneer, and occasional wood finishes. Commercial Casework was founded in 1976 and previously served retailers and banks.
