The developer behind an upcoming three-story, 36,000 sq. ft. building on Meridian Way hopes to see more foot traffic in Westar Place when the facility is complete.
“Westar Place continues to thrive with exciting new amenities,” said Westerville Economic Development Director Jason Bechtold. “New developments like the one planned for Meridian Way bring new places to work, shop and dine.”
Tim Spencer of Trivium Development LLC has led the charge to bring the $6 million mixed-use building to the southeast corner of Polaris Parkway and Meridian Way. The space boasts 24,000 sq. ft. of office space above lower-level retail space.
“The vision is to have a true mixed-use development in Westerville with first-floor amenities for the community with the office up above,” Spencer said. “We’ll likely have a high-end breakfast restaurant, we’ll have a new concept social gathering place.”
He also expects a dental office to set up shop in the lower level.
This isn’t Spencer’s first foray into development in Westar Place. His company is responsible for bringing the successful row of amenities at Cleveland Avenue and Polaris Parkway, like Starbucks, Bru Burger and Local Cantina.
“We have a good sense of the market and the expectations of the City. We use that knowledge to bring the right product to the area,” Spencer said.
The developer expects to break ground on the building in the first quarter of 2021.
