Construction is set to begin in August on a new medical office building at the former site of a garden center in Chesapeake.
Family Medicine Healthcare, a privately owned, independent family practice operating in the Portsmouth, Western Branch, Chesapeake and North Suffolk areas of Hampton Roads since 2004, recently purchased the three-acre site on Portsmouth Boulevard in the Western Branch area for $1.7 million.
According to S.L. Nusbaum Realty Co., the site was previously occupied for 25 years by McDonald Garden Center, which closed in 2017 due to changing shopping habits and competition from big box stores.
