A rare heavy-industrial facility on 96.29 acres offering large-scale manufacturing, redevelopment, logistics, and high-load infrastructure potential — at a materially lower basis than comparable ground-up development.
1762 Industrial Center is a rare existing industrial campus in Scottsboro, Alabama, with approximately 1.1 million square feet of industrial improvements on 96.29 acres. The property offers scale, rail infrastructure, high clear heights, legacy heavy-industrial features, and optional adjacent expansion acreage for manufacturers, infrastructure users, and redevelopment investors seeking a Southeast U.S. platform in the corridor between Huntsville, Chattanooga, Nashville, Birmingham, and Atlanta.
Built for heavy industrial use, the campus can support a range of operations following buyer-specific diligence and improvements — advanced manufacturing, metals and fabrication, automotive and aerospace suppliers, building products, industrial equipment, and data-center infrastructure manufacturing.
The property's former heavy-industrial use, large campus footprint, and prior site-specific power feasibility work may be of interest to data-center, AI infrastructure, and other high-load users. Future high-load electrical service remains subject to TVA, Scottsboro Electric Power Board, engineering, commercial terms, infrastructure costs, and required approvals.
The property offers an unusual combination of existing industrial scale, rail infrastructure, high ceiling heights, crane-supporting legacy structure, and optional adjacent acreage — suited to buyers with the capital and technical capability to reposition complex industrial assets at a basis well below replacement cost.
Approximately 1.1 million square feet of contiguous industrial improvements with 40–50 ft ceiling heights, 100-ft clear-span crane bays, rail into the buildings, and a full utility backbone — a combination that would take years and materially greater capital to build new.
Current plan sheets are available below. Detailed technical, structural, environmental, and utility documentation is available to qualified parties through the brokerage team, subject to NDA and seller approval.
Power to the property is provided by the Scottsboro Electric Power Board (local distribution, typically loads under 10–15 MW) within the Tennessee Valley Authority service territory (regional supply for larger loads across seven states).
On-site electrical service is limited today; the original substation was decommissioned. Current service levels should be confirmed during diligence.
The property has a history of heavy industrial electrical use. Prior site-specific TVA transmission feasibility materials are available to qualified parties under NDA.
Future high-load service remains subject to TVA and SEPB studies, engineering, commercial terms, infrastructure costs, environmental review, and required approvals. No representation or warranty is made regarding power availability, capacity, cost, or timing.
Serviced by Scottsboro WSG (Water, Sewer & Gas). The property accesses a 12-inch water main on Highway 79 with an 8-inch line to the building. A city-owned two-million-gallon water tank on site supplies a looped hydrant fire-protection system (16-inch reducing to 10-inch around the building).

Current track condition and reactivation requirements are available through the brokerage team.
