Mike's Metal Works is relocating to Jamul...

Mike's Metal Works is relocating to Jamul...  The company is currently located in El Cajon, but according to this story in SD Metro they are planning to relocate into this facility in Jamul:
JAMUL — A 59.85-acre site at 3552 Fowler Canyon Road in Jamul, which includes a 38,000-square-foot industrial building where airplane parts were made during World War II, has been sold for $1.7 million. The buyer was Property Evolution LLC with Michael and Jacqueline Hancock of Jamul as managing partners. The Hancock family operates Mike’s Metal Works, a steel fabrication firm operating in El Cajon. The company plans to relocate to Jamul. The company specializes in stainless steel and aluminum fabrication, including structural steel architectural railings and stairs.

The seller of the property was Fowler Canyon Limited Partnership, with James and Judith Asbury of El Cajon as managing partners. About 25.79 acres of the site will remain as open space.

Pacific Coast Commercial represented both the seller and buyer.

In the 1940s, the property was the site of airplane parts manufactured by the Fowler Aircraft Co., founded by Harlan D. Fowler (1895-1982). An adobe house where the Fowler family lived still stands on the property.
Here's a map to the site, which is not far from the golf course:

I had no idea that such a site or building existed in Jamul, and I've driven on Fowler Canyon Road, so I've been quite close to it.  You would think this would bring some jobs to Jamul, and perhaps even some new residents if some current employees want to relocate closer to work...
