Details Emerge In Plans For Former Delphi Site In Oak Creek … And They Include A Big Box

That is according to stories in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and Oak Creek Patch.

From the Journal Sentinel story …

The 191,000-square-foot Meijer store would be on the eastern portion of the 85-acre site, which is west of S. Howell Ave. and south of W. Drexel Ave., said Jerry Franke, president of development firm Wispark LLC.

The Meijer store would occupy about one-third of the site, formerly occupied by Delphi Corp. That auto parts factory closed, and was later demolished.

The western portion of the site would have around 150,000 to 200,000 square feet of commercial space, mainly in the former of smaller stores, restaurants and other services, such as a fitness center and medical offices, Franke said Wednesday.

There also would be around 700 apartments, he said. The apartments and additional commercial space would be developed in stages over several years.
