I am proud to call Tradepoint Atlantic our landlord and partner here in Baltimore. Their response to the tragic Key Bridge collapse has been nothing short of remarkable, and demonstrates their deep commitment to this city and community.
Within days of the accident, Tradepoint Atlantic converted 5 acres of their 3,300 acre logistics hub into a scrap steel processing center to handle the remains of the collapsed bridge. With plenty of land and a prime location, they quickly readied the site to cut the steel into smaller pieces that can be trucked away for recycling.
This herculean effort, which Tradepoint's EVP Aaron Tomarchio likened to "eating an elephant", will help clear debris and reopen the port. It follows several carefully orchestrated steps, from lifting hundreds of tons of steel onto barges, to slicing it up on land.
Having worked closely with Tradepoint Atlantic for years, I can attest that this rapid, well-coordinated response is characteristic of how they operate. Time and again, they have demonstrated an unwavering dedication to supporting the local economy and community.
Baltimore is fortunate to have Tradepoint Atlantic as a partner, breathing new life into Sparrows Point and the surrounding area. As we rebuild from this terrible tragedy, I am confident they will continue to play an integral role in the city's recovery and resurgence. We are in good hands. Kerry Doyle
