“Job-creating, manufacturing tenants are often drawn to facilities with heavy power, excellent infrastructure, and rail connectivity,” said Justin Lichter, Vice President of IRG. “Along with our $20 million investment into site improvements, enhanced rail infrastructure will attract growing companies to Macon.”

The Macon community has been a great supporter of the improvements on site.

“We are very excited for this property to come back to life, creating high-paying jobs in our community, and for the planned rail connection upgrades which are vitally important to the Savannah Port expansion,” says Macon–Bibb County Mayor Lester Miller.

Since acquiring the site in 2021, IRG has invested significantly into other site infrastructure and interior space improvements, which includes upgrading lighting, installing new docks, painting, making repairs, and selective demolition for increased efficiency. 

The rail project is expected to be completed by the end of 2022.
