Work has begun on the redevelopment of the former Brillion Iron Works plant site in Calumet County.

Ariens Co. has partnered with the City of Brillion to breathe new life into the massive site. Plans include renovating an old building to create an Ariens customer care center, adding new housing in the community and improving access to trails and recreation.

The efforts are aimed, in part, at placemaking and drawing more residents to Brillion to work for Ariens and other local employers.

GRAEF is being retained as the professional development consultant for the project.

Mary Kohrell, community economic development director for Calumet County, provided an update on the progress of the Brillion redevelopment in the latest edition of Insight magazine, which covers economic development in the New North region of northeast Wisconsin.
