Amgen opened one plant and started the next
Amgen opened its first plant and broke ground on the next one on the same day in January 2025. The second building is a $1 billion job.
The company says the two plants will cover more than 500,000 square feet together once the expansion is finished.

Contractors and the equipment they run
Cardinal Civil started as a water and sewer contractor in 2013. It now handles site development from clearing and erosion control through grading, utilities, and paving. It uses its own crews and equipment, with excavators and dump trucks in its equipment records.
Raleigh-based SouthernCross Construction also handles site development. Its services include grading, storm drainage, sewer and water lines, and curb and paving work. The company says its crews use GPS machine control and a fleet that includes dozers, loaders, excavators, and off-road trucks.

About the data on this page
New-build jobs include homes, commercial buildings and other new construction. Maintenance and renovation work aren't in these counts. The map shows jobs with coordinates, so it won't include every job in the list.
Some project records don't include permits. That doesn't mean the job has no permits. The stories also draw on owner, builder and public-agency updates. A story may discuss a development left out of the totals because its record is duplicated or incorrectly classified. Grouped markers on large maps keep a location from one of the jobs they represent, rather than showing every address separately.
Contractors are matched through offices or project activity in this market. Fleet details are company-wide equipment on file, not verified purchases or a count of machines at these sites. Public filings often arrive 30–90 days after the event. The refresh badge is the page's update date; individual dates appear in the tables.
