The Port of Oswego Authority (POA) has received $11.25 million in federal funding from U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand to construct a new, climate-controlled warehouse (above rendering), to accommodate Upstate New York’s growing semiconductor, renewable energy and advanced manufacturing industries.
It will replace its existing 40,000-sq.-ft. timber-framed warehouse with a 28,900-sq.-ft. modern, Net-Zero energy and carbon emissions climate-controlled warehouse. Total cost for the project would be $23,499,092. Rendering is by C&S Companies, Syracuse.
“The warehouse will be transformative for both the port and for Central New York because it will be the only climate-controlled warehouse with access to rail, road, and water. We are extremely grateful to Sen. Schumer for his steadfast, ongoing support of the port and his dedicated personal investment in growing the port and our Central New York economy,” said William Scriber, POA executive director, CEO.
