In Wentzville, Missouri, northwest of St. Louis, GM is expanding its truck and vans assembly plant at a project price tag of more than $1 billion. The project entails constructing a 150,000-square-foot expansion with a new paint department and expanded body shop to allow GM to make the "next generation" of Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon mid-sized pickup trucks. The facility also manufactures the Chevrolet Express and the Savana full-size van. The project is expected to be completed by the end of this year.

John Deere equipment manufacturer Deere & Company (NYSE:DE) (Moline, Illinois) also is getting in the state's manufacturing action with an upgrade and consolidation project at its plant in Springfield. The engine remanufacturing plant is having new drivetrain and hydraulic remanufacturing equipment added. While the move is meant to consolidate operations from Edmonton, Alberta, the Missouri Department of Economic Development says the expansion will create 130 new jobs at the plant. Construction kicked off earlier this year and is expected to be completed soon. Subscribers can click here for the project report.
The Pharma-Biotech Industry comes second in Missouri in regard to the value of projects under construction. Examples include the University of Missouri's health building complex at its Columbia campus. The new, five-story, 265,000-square-foot building will allow for research and instruction in medicine, veterinary medicine and other science-related disciplines. The facility will include a Research Tower, which will contain both wet and dry laboratory facilities, and the Innovation Tower, which will house the Clinical Translational Science Unit, allowing health professionals and scientists to work with patients in a collaborative space.
