New industrial development to open in Kenosha County

 

KENOSHA COUNTY, Wis. (CBS 58) -- A new development in Kenosha County hopes to bring more business to southeast Wisconsin. 

"It gives companies that are in southeast Wisconsin the ability to stay in southeast Wisconsin, but also users who see the advantage of moving from Illinois to Wisconsin, a place to call home," Aaron Martell, Executive Vice President of Logistics Property Company. 

Logistics Property Company is building a 750,000 square-foot facility just west of I-94 in Kenosha. Officials say businesses can take advantage of being close to Chicago and have the opportunity to expand to other buildings on site. 

It's the largest development of its kind in Wisconsin. The first building is about 90% complete and is expected to be finished in July.
