Officials from the city, state and Port of Vancouver will soon celebrate the groundbreaking of a new 125,000-square-foot industrial building.
Known as the Centennial Industrial Building, the new facility is situated on the port’s 108-acre Centennial Industrial Park (3300 Northwest 32nd Ave.).
At full build-out, the state-of-the-industry building will feature a dock and grade doors, LED lighting, on-site office space, easy access for tractors and trailer turn around, ample electrical supply and a fully-adhered PVC membrane roof – a portion of which will be solar-ready. The facility will be customizable for as many as five tenants.
Speakers at the upcoming groundbreaking ceremony — which was originally scheduled for earlier this month but delayed due to weather — are expected to include Jerry Oliver, Port of Vancouver commission president; Julianna Marler, Port of Vancouver interim CEO; Chris Green, assistant director for the Washington State Department of Commerce; Anne McEnerny-Ogle, City of Vancouver Mayor Pro Tem; and Greg Seifert, board chair of the Columbia River Economic Development Council.
The building is expected to be complete in June 2017.
