DESCRIPTION
Manufacturing and logistics park located on 100 acres of the former Ford Motor Company Plant in Norfolk, VA.
REDEVELOPMENT OF FORD/NORFOLK
In 2011, Jacoby Development acquired a 109-acre former Ford Motor Company Plant in Norfolk, Virginia. The site benefits from several infrastructural features including Norfolk Southern Rail connection, a 450-foot pier on the Elizabeth River and is in close proximity to several highways. The project attracted strong interest from logistics firms, and Jacoby sold its primary site to Katoen Natie, a global logistics provider, which is now operating a 668,000 SF distribution facility on the site.
