CINCINNATI — Messer Construction has broken ground on a 73,000-square-foot speculative industrial building at 2249 Seymour Ave., formerly a parking lot for the Cincinnati Gardens complex. The Port of Greater Cincinnati Development Authority purchased the 19-acre gardens property in 2016 as part of its industrial revitalization strategy to create development-ready sites in order to attract advanced manufacturers to Hamilton County. Messer Construction bought a five-acre parcel from The Port for the construction of the new manufacturing facility and will develop it in partnership with Terrex Development. The project represents a $6.5 million investment, according to Tim Steigerwald, president and CEO of Messer. The project team includes BHDP Architecture, Colliers International and Fifth Third Bank. Completion is slated for next year.
The project is located on a five-acre site at 2249 Seymour Ave.
