125 Olympic Court is a 13.92-acre Employment-Industrial (E-I) development site in the Athena Industrial Park corridor of Athens-Clarke County. The E-I district permits warehouse and distribution, light manufacturing and assembly, professional office, and research and technology uses by right, with medium manufacturing, outdoor storage, and self-storage available through the special-use-permit process. The parcel is wooded with mixed hardwood and pine and adjoins the CSX rail corridor along its west boundary. It carries the Employment Center designation on the county Future Land Use Map - so current zoning is aligned with the long-range plan and no rezoning is required for the most common industrial uses. The property sits in the Olympic Drive industrial corridor, the established industrial hub of Athens-Clarke County and home to Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health, Mativ, CertainTeed, Carrier, McLane, SKAPS Industries, and Accurus Aerospace. U.S. Highway 29 and Highway 72 are approximately 2 miles from the site, the Highway 10 Loop (Athens Perimeter) is approximately 3 miles, and downtown Athens is 5 miles - about a 15-minute drive. Athens-Clarke County has a population of approximately 130,000 and anchors a metro area of more than 220,000 with a regional labor force above 100,000. The University of Georgia, with more than 10,000 employees, provides a stable economic base and a deep labor pool, and county unemployment runs near 3 percent, below the state average. Industrial vacancy in the Athens market remains tight at 4-6 percent with limited new supply, supporting continued demand for development-zoned industrial land.
