The McDowell County Commissioners voted 3-2 Monday to purchase the old Universal Bedroom Furniture property for $2.55 million. The site, which includes a nearly 400,000-square-foot building and 315 acres of land, could be used for the long-term expansion needs of McDowell Technical Community College and provide space for small industries.

At Monday’s regular meeting, the commissioners talked about whether or not the county should purchase the Universal site, which is for sale. It is located west of McDowell Tech at the end of College Drive and also along Interstate 40. The building, which covers 398,000 square feet, would require some substantial upgrades. Much of the land is steep and not usable, but approximately 70 acres is suitable for future building construction, according to county officials.
