Fresh Market, based out of Greensboro, N.C., and has 12 other stores in Virginia, including in the Richmond, Northern Virginia and Hampton Roads markets.
The Bon Secours facility will offer many medical services, including In Motion, for physical therapy and sports medicine, urgent care, occupational health, a surgical weight loss center / metabolic center, and diagnostic imaging in a two-story building of about 26,400 square feet.
Ghent Station, located on 3.5 acres, is the former site of the Norfolk Senior Center.
