WARSAW, Ind. (WOWO): Warsaw’s Tech park is expanding.

Local public and private sector officials announced the expansion of the park and the development of a shell building there Monday. Warsaw Tech Park is a multi-phase, “shovel ready” business park offering flexible lot sizes, underground utilities, offsite retention, and stoplight access to US 30.

“Warsaw Tech Park is an example of the public-private partnerships that can propel our community forward,” said Warsaw Mayor Joseph M. Thallemer. “We commend everyone who has contributed toward this project, celebrate our success to date, and look forward to continued development at this “best-in-class” business park.”

Phase 1 of the park opened in 2015 with nearly 40 acres available for companies; Phase 2 will open next year and add another 50 acres.

“Our team at West Hill Development has long been committed to promoting business growth in the Warsaw area,” said West Hill Development partner Dan Robinson. “Our decision to move ahead with our second shell building at the Warsaw Tech Park illustrates our confidence in Warsaw as a place to do business.”
