advanced manufacturing campus

After the city of New Bedford received no bids to redevelop a golf course into a proposed manufacturing park, officials are soliciting feedback from developers and a real estate advisor to potentially tweak the offer.

Derek Santos, Exec. Director of the New Bedford Economic Development Council, says the City is now requesting proposals for the Advanced Manufacturing Campus.

As Massachusetts competes to host a new federal research agency, state leaders should keep New Bedford in mind.

The New Bedford City Council's City Property Committee voted unanimously Thursday to authorize a request for proposals to purchase and develop part of a municipal golf course into a manufacturing park.

A plan to redevelop a municipal golf course into a manufacturing park has gotten the green light from Beacon Hill, as the state senate today approved a land swap for conservation protections that will allow the project to move forward.
