Africa Rd, Westerville, OH

This shovel-ready site is located in Westerville's premier business district. The City of Westerville offers competitive economic incentives and a streamlined approval process. The amenity-rich area is home to local and global companies with access to a highly skilled regional workforce. Sites range from 2.3 to 16.8 acres, intended for office, flex/technology, and commercial uses that expand the character and economic vitality of the Westar business district. Each site has, or will have by Q3 2026, utilities in place, including Westerville’s municipal electric, fiber, and water utilities. Regional stormwater retention ponds have been planned as outdoor amenities connected by a regional path system, while saving individual sites from having to provide their own on-site retention. The City of Westerville’s East of Africa business district consists of 88 acres across five sites, and neighbors the established and thriving Westar Place business district, which offers a wide range of walkable amenities and proximity to a talented workforce. The City is in the final stages of the design phase of infrastructure planning, and expects to advance $30+ million in funding for all roads and utilities through the site, connecting to the regional transportation network, with construction to begin in early 2025. Upon completion, five shovel-ready parcels will be available for development, with the potential for private site construction to run concurrent with the infrastructure construction through 2025.
