Located conveniently off I-77 in the heart of Northeast Ohio, Valor Acres provides new opportunities for the preeminent mixed-use development between Cleveland and Akron. In October of 2020, The Sherwin-Williams Co. purchased a portion of the land at Valor Acres for development of its new research and development center, bringing hundreds of high-paying jobs and an immediate need for new housing in the area. The new R&D center will consist of multiple buildings, parking areas, and green space, and will initially employ approximately 800-900 workers. Additional employment opportunities are expected as Sherwin Williams continues to grow. The R&D center is the catalyst to attract increased office, residential, hospitality, and retail investment in the area. Valor Acres sits in a prime location, within a 30-minute drive to the majority of Northeast Ohio, including to the region’s two major airports, Akron-Canton Airport and Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. In addition to the Residences of Valor Acres, the master plan for Valor Acres includes 650,000 square-feet of new offices, a 130-room luxury hotel, and 150,000 square feet of retail and entertainment space.

The development financing consisted of: (i) senior construction debt with Huntington Bank, (ii) Tax Increment Financing, and (iii) sponsor equity.

“We are very happy to announce the closing of the first phase of residential development at Valor Acres,” remarked Kevin DiGeronimo, a principal at DiGeronimo Companies. “This phase is another major step towards a project that is catalytic to the region and will bring a multitude of new development and jobs to the area. BGL has been a terrific partner, showing both great expertise and creativity in structuring the financing for this initial phase. We are fortunate to have them on our team.”
