Old Philips Lighting facility in Bath demolished

A former Philips Lighting facility in Bath will be razed by the end of the year, according to Steuben County IDA Executive Director Jamie Johnson.  

Crews are currently performing asbestos abatement at the 75-acre Philips Lighting plant off State Route 54 prior to the demolition.

The plant, which previously manufactured light bulbs, closed in early 2014.
