AmeriPlex at the Port just celebrated its 13th anniversary and as I recently came across an interesting article from 2005 (to read the full article, click this link: AmeriPlexes flex muscle), I thought it might be fun to compare where we were in 2005 to where we are mid-way through 2013.
| 2005 | 2013 | |
| Buildings | 9 | 21 |
| Companies | 19 | 44 |
| Employees | 549 | 3214 |
| Projects Under Construction | 2 (Country Inn & Suites, Bass Pro Shops) | 1 (The Belmont Building) |
| Square Feet Developed | 1 M | 2.5 M |
| Acres Developed | 127 | 228 |
| Saleable Acres Remaining | 221 | 106 |
The question I most often receive is about jobs in AmeriPlex at the Port. We have hundreds of employees who report to work at the park every day and many others who report to companies based at AmeriPlex.
At right is a comparison of jobs located at AmeriPlex at the Port in 2005 versus today.
As you can see, the growth has been substantial and we expect these numbers to continue to climb year after year.
