The historic Ilion, N.Y., factory that produced Remington firearms and parts for nearly 200 years may soon become the site of a 200-megawatt data center. A second will follow, according to plans included with an application filed with the state of New York.
The Ilion site was initially listed for sale at $10 million. In June 2025, WKTV, a CBS-TV affiliate in Utica, N.Y., reported it was purchased by Turin Management for $2.1 million. CEO Kristen O’Neill said the facility’s future was uncertain, although manufacturing was not a consideration in re-development plans.
Paperwork filed by Turin Hoefler Avenue, LLC with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation earlier this year, according to a Rome (NY) Sentinel story in April, requested enrollment of 7.8 acres of the historic Remington site in the Brownfield Cleanup Program. If the state-supervised remediation was approved, according to the submitted plan, construction of a 250,000 square-foot data center would begin.
