Schilling Green Redevelopment Well Underway
Merritt Properties has torn 230 Schilling Circle down to its steel and has begun to replace a new façade on this 106,208 SF Class A Office building. From the beginning, this redevelopment has been created with resource conservation in mind by redeveloping an existing site and reusing more than 50% of the building’s structure. A number of other environmentally and occupant friendly features have been incorporated such as an energy efficient boiler package, high performance lighting with occupancy sensors, and water efficient fixtures to facilitate a significant reduction in the building’s energy and water consumption. The anticipated completion date is Summer 2008.

Sixth Building at Ashbrook Nearing Completion
The fast approaching completion of 20116 Ashbrook Place was celebrated on November 8th with a pig roast by Merritt Properties. This 100% pre-leased building is expected to deliver before the end of the year, an impressive feat considering construction commenced in late May 2007. This two story, 60,000 SF Class A Office building, conveniently fronting Rt.7/Leesburg Pike, features 10’ finished ceiling height and 4/1000 parking ratio.

New Fitness Center Named In Honor of Merritt’s Founder
On November 10, students, alumni, friends and persons from McDaniel College welcomed Leroy Merritt for the ribbon cutting ceremony of the new Leroy Merritt Fitness Center in Westminster. An alum (Class of ’52) of Western Maryland College, which became McDaniel College in 2002, Leroy Merritt has been quoted as saying “four of the best years of my life were on the Hill.” Not only will the building serve as a fitness and recreation center, but also as a community gathering space for the students.
