Amidst a small industrial park with low-rise factories, Americold this winter erected a massive structure of metal framework that towers 140 above Plainville.
The company’s refrigerated warehouse won’t be operating until sometime next year, but it’s been drawing the attention of drivers in the region for months.
“You have to see it to believe it,” Southington resident Geri Maxwell Gribinas wrote last week in a Facebook post that drew nearly 60 replies.
Calling it “some amazing high tech construction,” Gribinas recommended readers of the Southington Talks page see the structure before workers close in the exterior later this spring.
