GLOUCESTER Construction is expected to begin next year on an additional 100,000 square feet of retail space at the Fox Mill Center, Gloucester's largest commercial development.

"Our objective is to make this [center] a one-stop shop in Gloucester," said Chris Rouzie with Cushman & Wakefield Thalhimer. The addition "will fill in the missing retail components in Gloucester."

Thalhimer is the leasing agent for the property, which is under development by Bob Kubicki of Evergreen Development.

Rouzie said he could not yet release the names of tenants but said it will range from a pet supply retailer to a fashion or shoe store. He also said a restaurant is possible.

The proposed expansion, at the corner of Fox Centre Parkway and W. Main Street, will be laid out similar to Wal-Mart and Home Depot with a large parking lot and a driveway along the storefront.

Rouzie said a second entrance into Fox Mill Center is planned for just north of the Burger King on Route 17.

Garrey Curry, Gloucester's assistant county administrator, said he expects to receive a final version of the site plan soon.

Curry said the expansion continues the county's efforts to keep people shopping in Gloucester.
