Explore the OpportunitySite Location
The property sits at the heart of one of Mississippi's fastest-growing corridors — bounded by I-220 on the west and West County Line Road on the south, adjacent to Tougaloo College.
Development Framework
The site is conceived as an integrated master plan — each zone complementing the others, with the natural corridor as its organizing spine.
Retail, medical, and service-oriented uses anchored along West County Line Road. Positioned to capture parkway traffic and serve the surrounding catchment area.
Multifamily and build-to-rent community on the strongest buildable ground. Internal amenity loop, greenway views, and Madison County school access as market differentiators.
Workforce, office, and technology-support uses aligned with the AWS ecosystem and Tougaloo partnership potential. Phased to follow residential stabilization.
Floodplain and environmentally sensitive areas transformed into a linear park, trail system, and stormwater amenity — the differentiating feature of the entire master plan.
Technical Groundwork
Most development sites come to market with none of this in place. GWB Realty has invested in the technical groundwork — substantially reducing risk for any development partner.
Class A survey completed. Establishes legal boundary, topography, easements, and flood zone boundaries across the full 42.44-acre parcel.

Next StepTechnology Corridor
Mississippi has emerged as one of the fastest-growing technology infrastructure markets in the United States — anchored by Amazon Web Services' historic investment commitment and centered on the same corridor as the GWB Realty property.
Amazon Web Services' Ridgeland data center campus is located on the 1,200 block of West County Line Road — the same corridor as the GWB Realty property. A second AWS hyperscale complex is reported to occupy the Costas Property immediately west of Tougaloo College, placing the GWB site directly within the emerging data center footprint rather than on its periphery.
Entergy Mississippi's $300 million grid modernization program — accelerated by AWS's power demand — is projected to deliver a 50% reduction in outages and substantially upgraded transmission infrastructure throughout the region. These improvements benefit every user along the corridor, not just the data centers themselves.
AWS has funded pre-apprenticeship programs at Holmes and Hinds Community Colleges, K-12 STEM initiatives in Madison County and Jackson public schools, and workforce training reaching thousands of Mississippians. This ecosystem of technology-ready labor is a force multiplier for any development on the corridor.
The GWB Realty property is no longer on the periphery of Mississippi's economic geography. It sits within what Governor Tate Reeves has publicly branded "America's Digital Delta" — a designation backed by the single largest capital commitment in state history and a concentration of technology infrastructure that is still expanding.

The Property
Madison County has announced the conversion of West County Line Road into a full parkway, connecting State Street and ultimately linking to I-49. This transform the site from a secondary corridor to a primary growth axis.
Amazon Web Services has committed $25 billion to Mississippi data centers — including $11 billion in Madison County. One AWS site sits on the 1,200 block of West County Line Road; another occupies the Costas Property directly west of Tougaloo College. The GWB site is embedded within this footprint.
Madison County is the highest-income county in Mississippi. Its school district, professional base, and household income profile support premium residential, mixed-use, and institutional development.
Direct adjacency to Tougaloo College creates partnership potential for workforce housing, student housing, innovation center uses, and institutional collaboration — a differentiator few nearby sites can offer.
Value Positioning
The property's value is not simply a function of market appreciation. The most significant gains come from entitlement, engineering clarity, and strategic partnership — not waiting.
Sell after AWS and infrastructure improvements materialize. Captures market appreciation only. Leaves the majority of value on the table.
Advance master plan, complete USACE process, and secure preliminary entitlements. Position as a shovel-ready development site and sell to a qualified developer at a significant premium over raw land.
Contribute land into a JV with a residential, mixed-use, or institutional partner. Participate in project economics over time. Requires capital and execution but captures the full value creation arc.
