Lexington-based company Cowgill Inc. has signed on to build a new mixed-use development in Hamburg.

Coined Hamburg East, the 44-acre tract of land will join the new 41-acre UK Healthcare medical facility at the intersection of I-75/64 and Winchester Road, and construction is set to begin immediately.

Fun fact: This is one of the last corners of the interstate system available for commercial development in Fayette County’s Urban Services area.

Hamburg East is expected to include:

  • Apartments
  • Green spaces
  • Hotels
  • Retail spaces
  • Restaurants

“The addition of UK HealthCare and Hamburg East will prove to be a major benefit to both that part of the Lexington community, as well as for the people of Central and Eastern Kentucky,” said Joe Brumley, vice president for acquisition at Cowgill.
