“It’s a very big deal to all of us,” said Walton Hills Mayor Don Kolograf.
The site that once employed nearly 4,000 employees will soon have workers bustling again.With two million square feet of property to offer, the community has been waiting for it to be re-purposed.
“Every day somebody’s asking, what’s going on with the former Ford plant?” said Mayor Kolograf. “What are you doing?”Three developers bought the property in December of 2021. They’ve demolished most of the site. In its place will be five industrial buildings, one of which is in its beginning phases. “These buildings are pretty much designed for multi-tenant, industrial-type buildings,” said Mayor Kolograf.No one has signed the dotted line, but Mayor Kolograf says the developers are well aware of the impact this project could have.
“They understand we’d like to have the highest paying jobs there and a lot of employees,” said Mayor Kolograf.Copyright 2022 WOIO. All rights reserved.
