Indianapolis-based developer Scannell Properties is proposing two new warehouses, totaling 881,500 square feet in Windsor Locks. Scannell is seeking a special permit and site review for the project, at the corner of Old County Road and Route 20, on 76 acres owned by tobacco company OJ Thrall. Architecture and engineering firm BL Companies submitted an application, dated May 6, on behalf of Scannell. In a statement released to the Hartford Business Journal, Scannell Director of Development Daniel Madrigal asserted Monday’s hearing was a chance to demonstrate positive changes to the company’s development plans, which were prompted by input from residents and local officials. The project would result in the equivalent of 153 jobs during construction, then 110 warehouse jobs and 50 truck driving jobs, according to the Goman + York analysis.
