New Spring Street owners host July 30 event as committee eyes reuse and jobs
Summary
Committee reported Spring Street reopened under new owners and an event on July 30 (5–8 p.m.) introduced their plans, which included potential flex offices, cabinet manufacturing and discussion of space that could support roughly 150 jobs according to committee remarks.
Chair told the committee the new owners of the Spring Street property reopened the site on June 3 and planned a community event on July 30 from 5 to 8 p.m. She said owners are exploring multiple uses for the large space — including cabinet manufacturing, flex office space and other ideas — and that they mentioned the potential to support up to about 150 jobs as they recruit tenants.
Committee members said they will monitor the owners’ plans and support ideas that bring businesses into empty space; no formal approvals or incentives were requested at the meeting. Chair said she had spoken with one of the owners before the sale and will continue to follow up on specific tenant plans as they materialize.
