Mayor Hints Of Interest In Century Industrial Park Building

June 6, 2016

At a recent Century Chamber of Commerce meeting, Century Mayor Freddie McCall hinted of a possible industry with interest in a building in the town’s industrial park.

McCall said interest had been expressed in the former Helicopter Technology building.

“If it works out, it is going to be great for Century,” he told chamber members. “Something is going to happen sooner or later for Century.”

It’s been about seven years since the Town of Century re-acquired  the  former  Helicopter Technology building in the town’s industrial park, and the town still stands ready to make a deal with a future tenant for jobs.

The town purchased the industrial building at public auction  for less than $1 out of pocket back in August 2009,  following the town’s foreclosure judgment against the now defunct Helicopter Technology.

The 40,o00 square foot building is move-in ready with office and warehouse space, all climate controlled.

    I own a business near by, I would give the town their money back plus 100% profit?

    Let’s hope this opportunity will “get off the ground and fly” for the benefit of Century and the surrounding area.
