Fort Industry Square is a collection of riverfront buildings dating back to 1862 on a piece of property with great historical significance. The original fort was built in 1794 by General Anthony Wayne and occupied by US Troops until 1796. It is here that the Treaty of Fort Industry was signed on July 4, 1805 that opened the Firelands area to settlement. The original fort was replaced by 14 buildings built separately between 1862 and 1897. Two more buildings were added in 1987 and the majority of the older buildings renovated and connected via a hallway along their Summit Street entrances.

The expertise of OCP employees was a great asset to be able to meet the needs of this project. OCP foreman and management were essential at forecasting constraints, determining required materials, manpower and equipment and making recommendations for workflow to continue.
