Grandview — The Port of Grandview is capitalizing on growing interest in the community by developing new commercial spaces to support economic expansion. New homes and businesses are being developed around Grandview as the Port works to bring additional economic development to the community. The Port of Grandview is playing a central role in facilitating that growth through strategic property acquisition and development planning. One of the Port's newest projects is a 45-acre property near Woodworth and Puterbaugh Roads that the Port purchased late last year. The Port is planning to develop the site as the Woodworth Road Business Park. "And we're going to be calling that the Woodworth Road Business Park. It'll be in a farming operation for a couple years while we do the planning. But we're looking forward to that. It's quite a large chunk of land, and it's got a lot of possibilities," said Randy Tucker, Executive Director of the Port of Grandview. Tucker says Grandview's location is one factor helping generate interest in the community. The area offers convenient freeway access, allowing businesses to reach the Yakima Valley and Tri-Cities regions. That growing interest is creating demand for more available property. Seven prospective clients remain interested in property after available land at Wallace Way West was sold. The Port says it is moving quickly to acquire and develop additional properties to meet that demand. "And we see those people wanting to build business and grow the community as an asset. So we're moving as fast as we can," Tucker said. Housing development is also taking place in the community. Tucker says six homebuilders are currently working to build additional housing in Grandview. "We've got six homebuilders going as fast as they can to build as many houses as they can. So that's awesome," Tucker said. For the Woodworth Road Business Park, the Port is still in the planning stages and evaluating what types of development would be the best fit for the property. The Port is considering possibilities including a distribution center or manufacturing operation. Tucker says the Port is also considering the possibility of data-center development. However, attracting such development requires careful infrastructure planning. "A lot of buzz about data centers lately, too. And so we're looking at that possibility. Power and water are some of the issues that we have to pencil in the numbers as well," Tucker said. Infrastructure is also part of the Port's planning. Tucker says the Port works with the City of Grandview when developing business parks, while factors such as available power and water would have to be considered for potential developments such as a data center. The Port continues to market available property at industry trade shows as it works to attract new businesses to Grandview and capitalize on the community's growing appeal.
