First Lease Signed at FIC West
We are ecstatic to officially welcome our first tenant to the Forward Innovation Center manufacturing and distribution hub located in Brook Park, OH! Three years ago, Weston embarked on the most ambitious project in our 50 year history. We partnered with The DiGeronimo Companies and Scannell Properties in purchasing Cleveland Ford Engine Plant 2 in Brook Park and the Ford Stamping Plant in Walton Hills in anticipation of turning them both into state-of-the-art business parks. Only 143,000 SF now remain of this 364,000 SF spec building which sits prominently on Snow Road near the Cleveland Hopkins Airport. The site has everything – including access to a large labor force, modern construction, and a location that can’t be beat. A highly visible site, the business park offers close proximity to the airport, 1-480, I-71, and the Ohio Turnpike, as well as access to the Norfolk Southern Rail. Cleveland is now one of the most recession-resistant markets in the country with no shortage of traffic from major corporations, educational institutions and a thriving housing market.
