Goodyear Keeps Headquarters in Akron Under Redevelopment Plan
Goodyear Tire & Rubber plans to sell its current Akron site to Industrial Realty Group and lease a new headquarters on a 350 acre redevelopment near downtown. The $700 million private investment plus $200 million in government incentives aims to keep Goodyear’s world headquarters in Akron for decades, preserving thousands of jobs. Gov. Strickland called the move a state priority as IRG advances plans for a broader complex with offices, an industrial park, hotels, stores, and restaurants.
