New building permit for SPX

SPX Enterprises is developing a $118 million production facility west of County Line Road in the Greenbrier area to manufacture large-scale cooling and air-handling equipment for data centers.

The 460,000-square-foot facility is expected to create 350 jobs. The City and Industrial Development Authority approved up to $250,000 in incentives, contingent upon SPX meeting agreed-upon hiring and wage benchmarks through Dec. 31, 2029.

Choate Construction Co. was issued a $7.7 million building permit for fit-out of the recently announced industrial development project.
