The local picture

Five buildings, two parcels, and a new water main

Construction started in September 2025 for developer 4 Rivers Property Group. The largest building will rise five stories; four smaller buildings will be single-story. ARCO's plan also had to make room for the water-main extension and an area set aside for public use on one of the parcels. The buildings will total 147,385 square feet.

4 Rivers chose an integrated design-build contract, putting permitting, design, and construction with ARCO. That gives the contractor responsibility for the combined-parcel plan and the water-main requirement along with the buildings. ARCO has targeted November 2026 for completion, pending plat approval. Extra Space Storage is set to run the property after it opens.

About the data on this page

New-build jobs include homes, commercial buildings and other new construction. Maintenance and renovation work aren't in these counts. The map shows jobs with coordinates, so it won't include every job in the list.

Contractors are matched through offices or project activity in this market. Fleet details are company-wide equipment on file, not verified purchases or a count of machines at these sites. Public filings often arrive 30–90 days after the event. The refresh badge is the page's update date; individual dates appear in the tables.
