“We are thrilled to announce our latest SG DevCorp project to deliver approximately 1,280 cutting-edge modular units within the mixed use destination community in beautiful St. Marys Georgia,” stated Paul Galvin, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer of SG Blocks. “The Cumberland Inlet project is envisoned to revitalize the downtown area, with an emphasis on creating a community in harmony with the natural surroundings. We will be developing Cumberland Inlet in partnership with Jacoby Development, a highly-regarded and experienced developer in the southeast United States. Jacoby has been coordinating over the last two years with community stakeholders in a Public/Private Partnership (P3) to redevelop the waterfront parcel which previously was the site of a large pulp mill. This project also aligns with our vision for delivering product to sustainable, resilient communities along the coast and should aid us in showcasing our technology to the world, allowing us to focus on manufacturing. We estimate that our gross potential manufacturing revenue from this project will be approximately $180 million, being without a doubt, our largest SG DevCorp project to date.”
