The general contractor will be Harvey Cleary Builders looking off plans from Kirksey Architecture. The new building will be 110,000-145,000 square feet, or anonther room for 175 PNNL employees.
Work will continue for about a year and a half.
And while nothing is official yet, Columbia Basin College is also seeking funding to replace or remodel several buildings in the next three years. If you have a teenager exploring Tri-Tech or a loved one exploring a job change, the prospects for the construction industry in the Tri-Cities is looking strong.
