Officials on Thursday broke ground on a remediated brownfield site that will eventually host a high-capacity storage and distribution center.

The project, BridgePort II, is located near I-95 and the Outerbridge Crossing at 1160 State St., the former site of American Smelting and Refining Co.

Vazquez said the project developer, Bridge Industrial, is creating an "environmentally sensitive" final product, including efforts to prevent untreated sewage from being released into waterways, and roofs that can accommodate solar panels.
