With the acquisition of a holdout parcel, Sauer Properties now owns 38 contiguous acres in the area bounded by Hermitage Road, Allen Avenue, Broad and Leigh streets.

Despite the office market being shaken up by pandemic-induced work-from-home routines, Sauer Properties is setting its sights on a new office development in the city.
The next phase of the firm’s Sauer Center will be a four-story, 53,000-square-foot office building at 2222 W. Broad St., Sauer Properties President Ashley Peace confirmed this week.
The building will rise on a pad site behind the Broad Street-facing, CarMax-anchored Putney Building, and adjacent to a recently constructed parking deck that will support the new office building.
The next phase will rise on the plot marked by a red star at center-left. (
