Former Schindler Elevator Facility Sold -- Existing Business takes up Temporary Quarters

Sidney OH – The 36,000 Square Foot, former Schindler Elevator facility has been sold to local real estate investor Doug Townsend.  While the entire building is still for lease, Townsend Engineering, a company that designs, fabricates and services industrial automation systems, has temporarily located some of its operations within the space.  “We are experts in industrial automation, both in building new equipment and upgrades to existing equipment,” noted Townsend.  “For a broad base of customers, we economically implement automated control systems for process and assembly lines. We have designed, manufactured, programmed and installed industrial control equipment for many global companies,” he concluded.

“Townsend was an ideal match for the Schindler facility because he was able to come in within a few months after the company closed and use some of the space for his business,” commented Tim Echemann of Industrial Property Brokers who continues to list the facility. “For a future occupant, the 36,000 Sq. Ft. all air conditioned building could be expanded or subdivided down to 12,000 square feet.  Its five docks and easy access to I-75 make it an excellent location.”   Townsend has indicated that depending on the space requirements of future business tenants he would be willing to relocate his operations to accommodate their needs.
