Plans for the new Southern Pines Crossfit location were favorably reviewed by the Southern Pines Town Council on Wednesday. The regular agenda meeting also marked the first time town leaders have met in-person since the start of the pandemic in March 2020.
Dean King of Pinnacle Development Design Build presented the application for the nearly 9,000-square-foot gym on behalf of T & S Developers, LLC. The facility will be located on an undeveloped lot on SW Broad Street, next door to the Natureâs Own store and 195 American Fusion restaurant.
Architecturally speaking, this area of town has a more industrial feel. A number of structures are steel-framed building kits clad in metal siding, but redevelopment efforts include the revamped auto dealership where Cooper Auto Choice is now located and the new two-story brick Fidelity Bank building under construction. Also nearby is Redâs Corner, a food truck campus that is being developed by Rachel Jurgens of Pony Espresso.
