Southport Redevelopment Area Announces Phase One Ground Breaking

GLOUCESTER CITY, N.J., Dec. 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Gloucester City  
officials announced today that construction has begun on Organic  
Diversion's food waste to energy facility. The Organic Diversion  
facility is the first of several planned projects in the 145 acre  
Southport Redevelopment Area (SRA). Once completed, the SRA will be  
transformed from a long vacant, Brownfield industrial site into one  
of the premier business parks in the region. The SRA is being  
redeveloped by Southport Renewal, LLC with engineering support from  
T&M Associates and marketed by Prime Site Properties.

"This is a great day and it could not come at a better time of year  
with the holidays approaching," said Mayor William James of  
Gloucester City.  Having Organic Diversion start on the construction  
of its renewable energy facility in Gloucester City signals the  
beginning of a new era of development, public access to our water  
front, and tax ratables to help bring new revenue and business  
opportunities to our great City," concluded the Mayor in his remarks.  
A formal ribbon cutting will take place sometime early in the New Year.
