Give a brief description of your business.
Hilliard City Lab serves as a hub for innovation where businesses can access the tools and support needed to grow in the technology sector.

A new facility for Eco Plumbers, Electricians and HVAC Technicians is slated for construction now that the project's developer has acquired the land on which it will be built.

Equity, the local developer behind the project, bought the 19.2-acre property for just more than $4 million, according to Franklin County property records. The land is located east of Britton Parkway near Interstate 270 in Hilliard.

The acquisition sets the stage for construction to begin on the 158,000-square-foot flex industrial facility. Eco will become the $52.7 million building's anchor tenant, taking roughly 50,000 square feet of space.
