Gate Petroleum Co. bought land in Southside Quarter for a car wash and submitted plans for another location on property it owns in Glen Kernan Park.
Jacksonville-based Gate paid almost $1.9 million for about 2.2 acres at northeast Gate Parkway and Burnt Mill Road in Southside Quarter.
Through BFC Property Holdings Inc., Gate bought land Sept. 2 from S-15 Land Holdings LLC, an affiliate of developer Hines.
Developer Hines rezoned the vacant acreage for a Gate Express Carwash in July.
Southside Quarter is at southeast Butler Boulevard and Interstate 295.
Gate said there currently is not a construction timeline for the project.
In Glen Kernan Park, Gate filed civil engineering plans Sept. 1 for a convenience store and car wash at northwest Hodges and Butler boulevards. It is about 6 miles from Southside Quarter.
Property records show Gate paid almost $3.77 million on Dec. 17, 2021, for 3.46 acres in Glen Kernan Park.
Gate proposes a 6,536-square-foot convenience store and gas station with 20 fueling positions. It plans an adjacent 5,089-square-foot Gate Express Carwash.
Prosser Inc. is the civil engineer.
