Market Area and Property Characteristics:
The market area is primarily an industrial and residential area, though there are scattered commercial uses located mainly along West King Street (SR 520), with a cluster of intense commercial uses near the I-95 interchange.
Because of its central location in the County, it has developed a wide-range of housing, commercial, industrial and institutional development over the years, including Brevard Community College and the University of Central Florida's Cocoa Campus.
The residential areas, particularly the area to the north of the subject, serves as a bedroom community for a large part of central and north Brevard County. The Kennedy Space Center and the Canaveral Air Force station are major economic generators and are home to such Aero Space and Technology giants as; Space X, OneWeb, Blue Horizon, Firefly and the Boeing corporation.
Cocoa is relatively pro-growth in its policymaking, and in 2002, Cocoa embarked on an aggressive annexation program which nearly doubled the city’s size to 14 sq. miles. Since 2002, the City has conducted 37 annexations totaling 3,075 acres in real property. Over 1,100 acres of industrial land was part of the annexation.
Area Commercial Development:
Commercial properties serving the market area are primarily located on the Highway 520 Corridor.

The Sam's Club is accessed via Townsend Road.
Area Industrial Development:
Industrial use properties are predominantly between I-95 and Cox Road, with
additional industrial properties along Burnett Road and West King Street. Most

Several properties along Cox Road are typified as moderate-sized warehouse
buildings with large fenced yards for use as equipment and/or materials storage.

active use.
