LACKAWANNA, N.Y. — An expansion project that will bring new jobs and new life to a former Bethlehem Steel site got the green light on two fronts Wednesday.
The City of Lackawanna gave the approval for a $19 million expansion for sugar supplier Sucro Sourcing. The project will transform the remains of three abandoned and decaying buildings on the former steel complex into new structures to include a raw storage warehouse, a sugar refinery, packaging and finished good warehousing and offices.
