Construction begins on new development in Tallahassee

Posted by IronPlanet on Jan 17, 2012 10:00:00 PM

At the moment, a fairly large plot of land in downtown Tallahassee is completely undeveloped. However, within the next 18 months, all that is going to change. According to Tallahassee.com, it's going to become known as College Town. Occupying about six acres, the land will soon be filled by restaurants, bars and retail outlets. Best of all, when it's finished, College Town will offer between 600 and 800 jobs to locals in need of work.

"This is really going to be something when it gets opened up," Seminole Boosters chairman Brian Swain told the news source. "It's going to give everyone a reason to come to Tallahassee even when there is not a game."

New developments in Tallahassee means the need for new construction equipment - perfect timing, as IronPlanet's Florida auction is right around the corner. From Feb 21 -24, IronPlanet will auction thousands of items, located in Florida and across the US. Buyers can preview and bid on the equipment onsite at Fantasy of Flight near Orlando, or online at IronPlanet.com Unlike other auction companies, IronPlanet’s equipment is inspected and guaranteed, so buyers can bid with confidence.
