ALEXANDRIA, VA-Developer Edens, which is headquartered in Columbia, SC, has acquired a Giant grocery store and is under contract to purchase an adjoining property in order to develop a residential and retail development there.
In addition to the Giant site purchase at 530 First St., Edens is in contract to acquire the Virginia Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control store next door, according to Steve Boyle, managing director of Edens.
Edens with those two acquisitions controls the entire block bordered by First Street to the north, North Pitt Street to the east, Montgomery Street to the south and North St. Asaph Street to the west, according to the Washington Post.
The development firm plans to build residential units and retail at the site, although it has not as yet submitted plans to the county for the project. See story in the Washington Post.
