After closing on the first 20 acres, Lowe sold a portion of the property -- a 320,000-square-foot building -- to Sabey Corp. of Seattle, said Craig Furniss, senior vice president at Lowe. Sabey plans to develop the building for telecom uses.

The entire development has four components. About a quarter will consist of retail, including a Lowe's Home Improvement store, office supply outlet and restaurants. Then there's a 375,000-square-foot existing office building that could be used for office or telecom and two existing manufacturing buildings (Sabey's and another that may also go telecom). The last piece will consist of new warehouse-distribution centers.
