Port facilities are located on approximately 10 acres of land owned by Hickman-Fulton Co. With the exception of small parcels, all of the land is currently utilized for port and tenant operations. Additional acreage will be purchased as required to expand services, attract more tenants or compete to attract new industrial development.
The port currently has an option to purchase 10 acres immediately downstream from the existing docks that is possibly adaptable for construction of a new general cargo dock facility. In addition, the port has an option to purchase 200 acres on non-riverfront land adjacent to current operations. This property appears suitable for expansion of port commodity handling, warehousing, or industrial development. All of the optioned property is relatively flat. Additionally, there are large tracts of land currently being utilized for farming that could be available for future development.
