ROTTERDAM, N.Y. (NEWS10) -- Communications Test Design, Inc. (CTDI) is planning to expand to Rotterdam. According to the Schenectady Metroplex Development Authority, the company plans to lease a 200,000 square foot building at the Rotterdam Corporate Park.
The project was approved by the Rotterdam Planning Commission on Tuesday. CTDI plans to create about 200 jobs at the new facility.
