So I made the ultimate suburban dad move in 2019 when we bought a house here in Mooresville. We chose it for the schools and the proximity to countryside and the lake. We are loving the small-town lif

Downtown Mooresville is also very vibrant as well.  Most of the storefronts are occupied with local shops and restaurants and the facades on the storefronts are great.   https://www.downtownmoore

Up in Mooresville and walked a little around downtown and I must say it is booming.  Only saw one vacant storefront.  They were getting ready for a car cruise in tonight I think.  2 apartment complexes on the edge of downtown both new.    Several coffee shops and several restaurants too including Epic Chophouse.  

Oh and look how they increased outdoor dining areas in downtown.   Iredell County's largest town.

Empire Development Group wins approval for second phase of Troutman business park

 
North Fork Business Park updateexpand
 
Empire Development Group is under construction on the first phase of North Fork Business Park in Troutman.
SAM BARNETT REAL ESTATE
 

An industrial project in the Charlotte region that began earlier this year already appears to have expansion plans lined up.

Troutman's town council last week approved a rezoning request from Butch Bouwens, who helps lead Empire Development Group, for a 42.3-acre site at 134 Iredell Ave. The site would represent an extension of North Fork Business Park, a 45-acre site that Empire held a groundbreaking ceremony for earlier this year.

 

A specific site plan for the expansion was not presented at last week's council meeting, but a representative from the development team told the Charlotte Business Journal it would be similar to the first phase. The first phase of North Fork includes eight build-to-suit industrial sites that can accommodate buildings between 15,000 and 200,000 square feet.............................................

this is a good win for Mooresville and the entire metro.  They cite international access as one of their reasons which is of course CLT and our nonstops to Germany.

This is a great win for Iredell County and Mooresville and one of the largest NEW to market Office Leases in Charlotte region in months.  30,000 sq ft office lease and new manufacturing plant in town that is win!  

from Business NC daily digest today:

""One of the unsung heroes in last week’s announcement of German-based DEHN locating its U.S. headquarters in Mooresville is Michael Bay, local leaders say. Bay is the developer who bought a vacant textile mill more than a decade ago and has turned it into a 1.1 million-square-feet hub of retail, office and restaurant space.

The electrical engineering and manufacturing company, which sells electrical surge protection products to other businesses, will occupy up to 30,000-square-feet of office space inside the Merino Mill, alongside the Main Street Antiques and Design Gallery, the Barcelona Burger and Beer Garden and dozens of other businesses including Hitachi and Samsung. DEHN also will build a manufacturing facility elsewhere in Mooresville, investing $38.6 million and creating 195 jobs with average wages of $66,120.

“He had a vision for this,” Mooresville Mayor Chris Carney says of Bay. “If you could have seen this building 20 years ago it was a condemned piece of real estate. He’s done all of this just through love and hard work.”

The Merino Mill property on the fast-growing town’s Main Street dates back to 1893 when it was the Moor Quality Turkish Towel company, Bay says. It has been many things over the years. “I used to buy my Levi jeans here when it was a Burlington Mills,” says Melissa Neader, chair of the Iredell County Board of Commission and second-generation McDonald’s franchisee. “You could get them at a really good price because they were seconds, but if you didn’t look too close you couldn’t tell if there was a flaw in them so I saved a lot of money.”

Burlington Industries shut its Mooresville factory down in 1999. Bay, who came to the U.S. from Turkey when he was 16, bought the former mill and 40-plus acre site in 2010. “We’ve been working on it for 13 years, but the renovation is still not finished,” says Bay. He expects the renovation to be completed by the end of the year.

DEHN looked at more than 380 locations in 15 states before picking Merino Mill for its headquarters. Selling points were the cooperation between local and state governments and training being offered by the community college, says Ingo Rutenberg, CEO for DEHN USA. The space in the Merino Mill will give the company – which employs about 2,500 workers in 27 countries – a real headquarters.""

New road project has started in Iredell County.

I wish I could find an actual rendering of its path. "Phase two will run to Shearers Road and Rocky River". I can't quite see that. Shearer Road crosses East Rocky River Road at one point, but not Rocky River.

There's a sketch on the development map. Not sure if it's still accurate?

Thanks!  I know everyone says it'll be great but I sure hate seeing those nice farms go down the road of more development.
