This land assemblage can lend itself to anyone looking to develop some sort of mixed-use property in a constantly growing market. The parcels involved here have great frontage on Ghent Road, which features an abundance of daily traffic. A portion of the land would need to have existing property leveled and a new pump station would need to be installed as well. This is a major opportunity for local or national developers to add a new product to a growing location.
