The Bill Theisen Industrial Park west of The Plains offers excellent expansion opportunities to new and growing companies in Athens County. Within the Industrial Park, the Athens County Port Authority is working with the engineering firm of Burgess & Niple, Inc. to construct a 60,000 SF manufacturing shell building on parcel P010010000119. This speculative building will be built as a shell with tenant-specific improvements to be made as needed prior to occupancy. It could be single or multi tenant. Ceiling height can be 32 ft or lower with drop ceiling. Column spacing is a 50 ft x 100 ft grid. This building will be expandable to 120,000 SF and tenant specific improvements are expected. Construction began July 2023 and scheduled completion is July 2024. The engineering firm confirmed that, if needed, a tower (such as for fermentation) could be located near the building.
