“Charlestown proudly welcomes the U.S. Census Bureau as they transition from their current facility to a new, state-of-the-art home in the River Ridge Commerce Center,” said Charlestown Mayor Treva Hodges. “The regional retention of these600 jobs demonstrates the appeal of our Southern Indiana communities, and we’re excited for Census employees to join the vibrant district of neighboring companies, including Cheesecake Factory, CTDI, and Dan Cristiani Excavating, Inc, that form the foundational pieces of Charlestown’s future. This renewed federal commitment to the region further proves that there’s never been a better time to choose Southern Indiana.”
The new lease allows the U.S. Census Bureau, a major employer in Southern Indiana for the past 60 years, to consolidate its operations from multiple buildings within its original 80-acre local campus into a new, single facility specifically designed for its evolving operations.
“It’s exciting to complete our first River Ridge Commerce Center project and it is gratifying that this newly constructed facility provides a long-term home for a major employer that’s been a big part of the region for so long,” said BREG Senior Vice President Dean Brown. “River Ridge Commerce Park provides a tremendous logistical advantage for a wide range of tenants, and we look forward to helping the River Ridge team continue to grow the park through our rail and real estate activities.”
