Over the last decade, the Port of Camas-Washougal had added over 70,000 square feet of industrial and manufacturing space in several buildings at its industrial park in Washougal. The new spec building featured at the Port is designed to allow for the flexible use of industrial space by a single or multiple tenants for a wide variety of uses. The building can fit one or multiple companies, providing office space in the front, with large bay doors and loading docks in the back for shipping and receiving.

“At the Port of Camas-Washougal, our primary mission is economic development and increasing jobs in our local community,” said Scot Walstra, Port Director of Planning & Development. “We’ve had great success with filling this type of spec building. Our convenient access to major highways, air, and rail transportation makes the Port’s location attractive to a wide range of industrial users. “

Walstra added that the Port can provide build-to-suit options for lease or sale. With over 120 acres available for new development, the Port offers tenants room to grow and enhance the local industrial base.

The Port’s 430-acre industrial park is already home to over 40 diverse companies for heavy and light industrial activities, 150,000 square feet of warehouse space, over a thousand employees, and 120 acres for future industrial expansion. Port tenants generate hundreds of additional jobs locally, over $30 million in payroll, and contribute to taxes that help pay for public services such as roads, schools, and police and fire protection.
