A substantial amount of debris remains to be sorted and hauled away. Some will be trucked to the landfill and some will be transported to a metal recycling facility.

Much of the concrete will be crushed to provide a covering for the 10-acre site.

Stacey Duncan of the Broome County Industrial Development Agency said "it's good for the psyche of our community too see something new" in that location. She said "we're moving in the right direction as a community" as efforts are made to attract new businesses to the site.

The 130-acre property that had been occupied by the massive IBM Endicott manufacturing complex now is known as the Huron Campus. It's owned by the Wisconsin-based real estate firm Phoenix Investors.
