Denver, NC – Lincoln Economic Development Association announced today a major new business park in eastern Lincoln County only minutes from Lake Norman. Airlee Park at Ingleside will be developed by Boucardon LLC of Mooresville on land owned by the Clark family of Lincoln County.
Airlee Park will total 231 acres stretching from NC 73 to Optimist Club Road along new Highway 16 (See attached map). The park will be developed in four phases by LB Builders, the exclusive builder within the park.
Leon Bouwens of LB Builders states, “Opportunities for growth in Lincoln County made this site attractive for our company. There is a demand for industrial property on the western side of Lake Norman with convenient access to Charlotte, and this property is well situated to fill that need.” His associate, Don Peterson added, “Lincoln County has created a very friendly environment for companies like ours to do business. We are already impressed with the level of cooperation that we have received. We believe that the timing is right, and the location couldn’t be better for Lincoln County’s next major business park.”
David Clark, Jr. is also enthusiastic stating, “Allison, Walter, Caroline and I are excited at the prospect of helping to create a Class A business park in our community that will increase our tax base and bring jobs at a time we desperately need them. It will be especially satisfying to us knowing we are helping achieve a vision of our father’s who wanted to do so in the late 1980’s on this same property but was unable to fulfill due to an auto accident that left him paralyzed. We are confident Boucardon LLC, with assistance from the Lincoln Economic Development Association (LEDA), will make Airlie Park at Ingleside as successful as the Lincoln County Industrial Park on Hwy. 321. We are also appreciative and grateful Boucardon has chosen to use the same name our father intended for his park.”
LEDA has been working on a park in this location since 2002 noted Barry Matherly, executive director. “Although we would have preferred this type of high quality park sooner in east Lincoln, it seems the current timing works very well with the access off new NC 16, pending completion of the new wastewater plant, new East Lincoln Medical Center, future YMCA, upgraded Lake Norman web site ( www.lakenormaneda.org ) and recently announced NC Commerce Tier 2 status.”
Beth Yarbrough with Allen Tate Realtors worked to make the land transaction a reality. She commented that, “residential and corporate clients alike are choosing Lincoln County because of the convenient proximity to Charlotte and Lake Norman, combined with low taxes, business incentives, great schools and general quality of life. She is very optimistic about this project and the outlook that it projects for Lincoln County.”
