Former Janesville Assembly Plant
Janesville, WisconsinFormer GM Janesville Assembly Plant
In December 2017, a CDC affiliate company agreed to purchase the historic Janesville Assembly Plant from General Motors. As part of the transaction, Environmental Liability Transfer, Inc. (ELT) facilitated the assumption of environmental liabilities associated with the site and its former operators.
With 4.8 million sq/ft of buildings under roof, the “Janesville Assembly Plant” was once the largest General Motors automotive plant in the world. Following acquisition, CDC invested significant resources to reposition the 250-acre industrial property for new utilization. Activity included asbestos abatement, demolition, environmental remediation, and extensive redevelopment planning.
Today the 250-acre site is ready for the next phase of progress – redevelopment. CDC believes the former Janesville Assembly Plant could attract manufacturing, warehousing, and logistics-related development due to existing site features such as rail access and 250 acres of development-ready land.
