Enterchange At Northlake

Devon USA LLC, a commercial real estate development and investment company that owns and manages a diversified portfolio of properties in the Mid-Atlantic region, is building a high-bay industrial warehouse complex of four buildings, which at completion will have a total of 1,031,000 square feet of floor area. The project is located on 61.53 acres of land, on North Lakeridge Parkway, in the Northlake Business Park, which lies in the northwest quadrant of the Lewistown Road and Interstate 95 interchange.

The Enterchange at Northlake project is expected to generate approximately $ 400,000 annually in property tax revenues at build out. The number of new jobs to be ultimately created by the project is estimated to be between 300 and 500. The initial site plan submittal by McKinney and Company, the engineers for the project, was on May 13, 2003, and the revised site plan was approved by Hanover County on October 17, 2003. An early land disturbance permit had previously been issued by the Department of Public Works on July 28, 2003 which allowed site clearing and grading to commence.

Devon USA expects its first two buildings, currently under construction, to be ready for occupancy by the first quarter of 2005.
