This preliminary design document shows the proposed commercial development for Route 589, located south of the entrances to the Ocean Pines community.
A developer is planning a mixed-use commercial center for an empty parcel on Racetrack Road that would bring new retail, office, and restaurant space to the Route 589 corridor.
Worcester County’s Technical Review Committee had a major site plan review at its Feb. 11 meeting for what’s being called the 589 Group Project. Plans call for four retail buildings.
The grassy 11.05-acre parcel is located to the north of Abi’s Diner, and south of the new TidalHealth Gudelsky Family Medical Center. The property owner is 589 Group, LLC, which state business records show is based in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.
Preliminary site plans by Vista Design show two 7,000-square-foot buildings and one 4,625-square-foot building designated for retail, office, or restaurant. Another 4,000-square-foot building could be used for a fast-food eatery in addition to office space.
To the rear of the property are three buildings for self-storage or contractor shops, each 40,000 square feet in size. Another 600-square-foot building nearby would serve as a standalone office. The project will require site plan review by the State Highway Administration.
