Greenberg Gibbons Commercial Corp. and Reliable Contracting are nearing completion of their 1.2 million-square-foot, $275 million addition to the Village at Waugh Chapel, which will comprise of several major retailers, including Wegmans.
“The project, we’ve always felt, was going to be very successful from the very beginning,” said Reliable Contracting President Jay Baldwin.
Village South is one of the largest planned developments to start in Greater Baltimore since before the Great Recession.
“It’s a very positive sign,” said commercial real estate broker Rene Daniel. “It’s one of the largest projects going on the East Coast, not just Baltimore.”
But there was a time when developers were struggling to attract tenants to fill up their retail space. Luckily, once Wegmans signed on, several other tenants jumped at the chance to be a part of Village South.
Wegmans spokeswoman Jo Natale explained that the company only opens one or two new stores a year and is very particular in choosing its location.
“There are really three or four primary things that we look for, and in this instance they all came together,” said Natale.
These factors include:
- Location
- The number of people living nearby
- The ability to be a regional draw for potential shoppers
Other future or recently opened Wegmans stores in Maryland include: Landover, Frederick, Bel Air, Columbia, and Germantown.
