Timmons tops off $50M HQ in Chesterfield County

Engineering and design firm Timmons Group topped off the last steel beam of its new, $50 million headquarters Friday at Chesterfield County’s Springline at District 60 mixed-use development.

The five-story, 150,000-square-foot building is part of the $210 million, 42-acre first phase of the county’s Springline at District 60 development, located on Midlothian Turnpike off Chippenham Parkway. Chesterfield County cleared the way for development in March by starting demolition on the former Best Products building in what was the Spring Rock Green shopping center.

“The topping off of the building marks an important milestone for the project,” Timmons President and CEO Brian Bortell said in a statement. “Hourigan [Group] is making extremely good progress with construction, and we are excited that very soon our employees will be in a new office building located in District 60.”

Construction on the Timmons office building started in August and is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2024. The new headquarters is about a mile away from the company’s current office. The building will house about 400 Timmons employees and is fully leased. It will also house the administrative offices of the Chesterfield County Public Schools and the county’s Department of Economic Development.

“Having the Timmons Group’s office building at the Springline development keeps their corporate headquarters in Chesterfield and allows them to grow their talented workforce,” Mark Miller, the Midlothian District representative for the Chesterfield County Board of Supervisors, said in a statement. “People are telling us they want high-quality places to live, work and play in Chesterfield, and Springline will deliver on that vision.”

Chesterfield previously marked a milestone in the Springline project with the groundbreaking of The James at Springline, an $80 million apartment building with ground-floor retail space, in late September.

The first phase of Springline at District 60 also will have a 150,000-square-foot office building, a sports entertainment and tournament venue, a specialty grocery store and a parking garage. The center of the site will be an open space that can host concerts, markets, festivals or other similar events.

The Chesterfield Economic Development Authority bought the land from Bond Cos. in 2021 for $16 million, and the county supervisors approved the development plan in April 2022. At the time of rezoning in 2022, the initial development cost estimate for the overall project was $675 million, according to a project spokesperson.

Remaining phases are still in planning stages. As of March, the county expected to have 1,200 residential units total, split between apartments and townhouses, and plans to add another office building, an extended-stay hotel, entertainment venues and a police station.
