There is also an empty lot in Pennsylvania which predates the Wisconsin site by several years.
In 2013, Foxconn promised to spend $30 million over two years building a robotics manufacturing facility in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania that would have employed five hundred people. They also planned to invest $10 million into R&D at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) as part of the arrangement. In return, the state, county, and city offered Foxconn tax incentives and property improvements. Seven years after the ribbon cutting ceremony, the property is still an empty lot and CMU never received the investment.
On the plus side, nobody's home was seized as they were in Wisconsin.
