New Development at the Tech Park

[Chriscross309]

The state is building a state of the art research complex at the WV Regional Technology Park in South Charleston.

A 200,000-square-foot, $250 million West Virginia State Laboratories building will soon begin taking shape on a 14-acre site at the West Virginia Regional Technology Park in South Charleston.

A dedication ceremony was held at the construction site Tuesday.

The new structure will bring seven laboratories of five agencies scattered across the state under one roof, in a spacious building with state-of-the-art research equipment.

Here's a rendering of the laboratories. It's a very nice design and will be a huge addition to the Tech Park!

That's big news. South Charleston is certainly an Oasis in Kanawha County. Everything seems to be relocating there and leaving Charleston, or other places.

I wonder what tenant will be using the main tech park HQ offices that N3 once occupied? I believe most of those jobs moved to Costa Rica during COVID.

I wasn't aware that N3 left. In fact, didn't the announce the addition of employees in 2021?

But yes, South Charleston has leaders with a vision. Saint Albans is also getting closer to turning that corner.

you are correct, they called everyone back into the office there that still had a job. I was thinking of another place.
