Truck Dealership Seeks to Convert Cortlandt Manor Property

Leal Peterbilt plans to transform unfinished car wash into truck sales and service center

Published on Feb. 11, 2026

Leal Peterbilt, a commercial Peterbilt truck dealership based in Queens, New York, is seeking to convert a partially-built but never-opened car wash facility in Cortlandt Manor into a new truck sales, parts, and service location for its Westchester County operations.

Why it matters

The proposed conversion would bring a new commercial truck dealership to Cortlandt Manor, providing sales, service, and parts for heavy-duty commercial vehicles like those used in freight hauling, construction, and other industrial sectors. This could help meet local demand for truck services and support the regional transportation and logistics industries.

The details

Leal Peterbilt plans to make several modifications to the existing structure, including increasing the size of service bays to accommodate trucks, adding new service bays, removing part of the building, and reconfiguring the parking to facilitate truck movements. Three existing car wash bays would be converted to service bays, two wash bays would be demolished, and four new service bays would be created. One bay would be used for parts storage.

  • In November 2017, Cortlandt's Planning Board issued site plan and other approvals for the unfinished Crystal Clean Car Wash at the property.
  • 70 Roa Hook Realty LLC has recently purchased the property at 70 Roa Hook Road and is seeking site plan approval to convert it for Leal Peterbilt's use.
