Building at Jeannette Industrial Park to be renovated with $657K state grant
A $657,000 project to renovate an unoccupied building at Jeannette Industrial Park was approved Thursday by the Westmoreland County Industrial Development Corp.
TBI Contracting of McKeesport was awarded the contract, according to an announcement. Workers will install energy-efficient interior lighting, add insulation, replace the floor and doors, add a women’s restroom and update an office, break room and men’s restroom in the 50,000-square-foot building.
The work is expected to be completed in November. The building, one of two that are unoccupied at the park, will be available after the renovations. The project is being funded by a state Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program grant.
The park near the city’s downtown area is home to several companies, including cabinet maker Tech 2000 Woodworks and aerospace machining company Stellar Precision Components. The second unoccupied building already is available.
