Speculative industrial building project in North Alabama

One of the new building permits issued this past week is a new 150,000 square foot pre-engineered metal industrial building facility in Florence. This part of a joint project spearheaded by the Shoals Economic Development Authority.

Doster Construction is listed as the lead contractor for the project and CREATE Architects of Florence is the designer.

In addition to the industrial building facility in Florence, the project includes the 250,000-square foot Shoals Research Airpark speculative building.

“To further our mission of promoting new businesses and employment opportunities for The Shoals community, our team and Board are committed to this Product Development Plan. These two new buildings will solidify The Shoals as a leading location for industrial projects. We eagerly look forward to starting the construction and are committed to finding the ideal tenant.”
Kevin Jackson, president of The Shoals EDA
