A developer wants to build an 8,000-square-foot office building on Cardinal Drive extension, according to site plans posted Friday on the City of Wilmington’s project tracking website.

The proposed office would be split into four, 2,000-square-foot units, the site plans say, referring to the planned building as “Government Resource Center.” The facility would be located on a little over an acre within a 4.37-acre lot at 127 Cardinal Drive Extension, not far from the 5900 block of Market Street, according to the site plans.

The new office would be between the car dealership Parkway of Wilmington and the building that houses the Wilmington regional office of the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources. 

The project’s documents list Card Holdings LLC and Earl Worsley of Worsley Real Estate under the heading “owner/developer.” Engineering firm JBS Consulting and architectural firm Becker Morgan Group are also listed on site plans.

The plans will first be reviewed by the city’s Technical Review Committee, and the TRC’s next meeting is scheduled for March 5.

Most recent New Hanover County tax records for the entire lot at 127 Cardinal Drive Extension show a sale price of $3.1 million, paid by Worsley Investment & Development Co. in 2007.
