The land was previously used by a gas distributor and is designated as a brownfield site. The state requires significant environmental remediation of such properties before redevelopment can begin. In April 2013, Antigua filed a commencement notice with the county indicating the start of remediation work.

Moore 77 LLC is the buyer. The company is registered in Delaware, which does not identify company principals in its corporate records. No financing was recorded. — Eric Kalis
