Phase I
The first phase of the project focused on excavation and the relocation of existing utilities to accommodate the installation of concrete foundations for three new structures: the Biogas Building, the Motor Control Center (MCC), and the Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) Building.

The redevelopment delivered approximately 40,000 square feet of finished residential space now available for lease.
