- EastPark, Kentucky
EastPark is a 1000 acre (4 km²) industrial park located in the state of
Kentucky ,United States , at the junction of Boyd, Greenup, and Carter counties, although most of the park resides in Greenup County. The park is operated by the Northeast Kentucky Regional Industrial Park Authority. The site of the park was donated to the state of Kentucky byAddington Enterprises from reclaimed land that had once been used as astrip mine . The state of Kentucky used the donated land to build the park and a two-lane highway, now known as the Industrial Parkway (Kentucky Route 67 ) This proved to be beneficial to both Addington and the state, as the land was not able to be developed without the road and it provided a way to connectUS 23 in Greenup County toInterstate 64 . The park has a convenient location, as it is located where Interstate 64 and KY 67 intersect. EastPark is also connected to a port on theOhio River inWurtland, Kentucky , via KY 67.EastPark is located in the Huntington-Ashland, WV-KY-OH,
