Wilmington Trade Center breaks ground on second building, doubles capacity

July 26, 2022

// WILMINGTON BUSINESS JOURNAL

WILMINGTON – The two-year-old commercial real-estate firm Edgewater Ventures has broken ground on another property in Wilmington. It will be the second building constructed as part of its debut spec industrial complex located off Highway 421.


The Wilmington Trade Center saw the recent completion of its 157,610-square-foot first building. Following suit will be the identical second structure, also 157,610 square feet, adding to the 425,000-square-foot campus.


CEO Chris Norvell confirmed the center signed recent leases with PaperFoam and Coastal Carrier, to be located in the complex.

“We’re excited to start our second building at Wilmington Trade Center and capitalize on the momentum in the park,” Norvell said in a release.


Edgewater chose to build along Highway 421 — minutes from downtown Wilmington, the airport and the ports — due to its close proximity to I-140 and I-40 to Raleigh, Highway 17 to Myrtle Beach, as well as I-74 to Charlotte.

Tim Skender, principal at Edgewater, said the acquisition was a good opportunity in a submarket that is thriving. "We’re big believers in lifestyle office or neighborhood office," he said. "1800 Central is well-located, in a dynamic, growing (submarket) where the neighborhood is the amenity for the people who office there. There’s a lot of momentum in Plaza, broadly speaking."
