Southampton OKs Mercedes-Benz dealer’s expansion

The luxury car dealership, which was built in 2010, will undergo a significant expansion after getting the go-ahead from the Southampton Town Planning Board. The dealership will get an additional 829 square feet in the showroom, a 4,236-square-foot enclosed drop-off area and a 2,622-square-foot service garage with five bays. They also plan to convert 627 square feet of lower-level offices to a space for training and conferences. The dealership is also slated to add 145 spots to its parking lot, not necessarily for customers, but for displaying available vehicles. [27east]
