Virginia Beach Town Center

A. Tower 2

"I emailed Mr. Divaris yesterday to get an update on the prospective tower which will be built on the Columbus Center parking lot and here is his response:

Yes we have started the plans for block 11, the south parking lot of

One Columbus Center. The current plans call for a 23 storey building,

but that could change based upon demand. As we have very little office

space available the timing is right to get started. We are talking to

several tenants about space so we could get going sooner than later. As

of now, we expect to break ground for that building some time in the

second/third quarter of 2006 and we expect it to open in early 2008."

update 12/24/05: The Town Center website has been updated with the following info-

"Construction is set to begin on the new 20-story second high-rise office tower at the Town Center of Virginia Beach with occupancy set for Summer 2008. The office component of 287,000 square feet over 12 floors will be above a 800 car parking garage. In addition, there will be 80,000 square feet of retail stores complementing the tenant mix at the Town Center."

B. Cosmopolitan Apartments- 14-story apartment building scheduled to open this fall.

This project is nearing completion and some tenants have already moved in.

Cornerstone Development

Cornerstone will have 234 two-story townhomes built atop each other in four-story buildings.

Also included will be 242 three-story townhouses and 370 apartments. The apartments will be connected to a four-story parking garage. The one- to three-bedroom townhouses will be priced in the mid-$100,000s up to $300,000. This project met with some initial opposition due at the time to the developers refusal to include affordable housing. A vote on this project was deferred by council on March 22, 2005 but later approved on April 5, 2005 by a 9-2 vote. The current status of this project is unknown. You can find the complete project details at this link Warning! .pdf file.
