The Weitz Co., a Jacksonville, Fla.-based design and construction firm, is readying to start the expansion of the east warehouse at Chattanooga’s Volkswagen plant.
The work, part of the $900 million plant expansion, will add 322,000 square feet, including 297,000 square feet of traditional warehousing space and 25,000 square feet of high-bay space.
“This is an exciting time for Weitz as we grow our automotive market segment,” says Raymond Chin of Weitz. “A lot of integrated collaboration and operations efforts are going into ensuring Volkswagen Chattanooga has the best design and construction experience.”
Partnering with Epstein Global for design services, Weitz will coordinate all planning, design and construction for the project.
