oxygen fabrication plant, railroad lines, material storage yards, and oil and gas wells.
Operations at the facility ceased in 2012, and demolition on the site began in 2014. The
property is currently vacant, and remaining buildings are unsafe. An assessment will be
completed on the property to determine any contamination from the site’s industrial
history.

structure was built and is currently being used as dry storage and operations for a small
contracting company. Cleanup on the site includes contaminated soil remediation and
groundwater remediation throughout the property. After cleanup, the Cleveland Steel
Container Corporation intends to purchase the property and build another 120,000-
square-foot building to accommodate its operations.

Assessment
In the 1920s, this property was utilized for a dry-cleaning operation and several
residential houses. A filling station and auto body repair shop were later constructed.
These structures were demolished in the 1950s, and the property was vacant until the
late 1970s when an office building was constructed on the site. An assessment is needed
to determine the extent of any environmental contaminations. After assessment and any
needed remediation, the property will support a net-zero energy research and
development headquarters.
