North Stafford, Va. — First houses, then a convience store, and now Nissan car dealership.
The Hills at Aquia continues to expand as Rosner Nissan of Stafford has opened its doors along U.S. 1 in North Stafford. It’s affiliated with Rosner Toyota, which sits about a half-mile away on nearby Va. 610.
“We’re pulling a lot of people who have not had the choice to by Nissan in Stafford, giving them another choice than Toyota,” said general manager Bob Gasbarri.
The car dealership hired 73 people when it opened last month, something Gasbarri said is difficult for many businesses to do in this down economy.
“For us, we’re fortunate enough to plan on keep growing and growing,” said Gasbarri.
And the dealership plans to continue expanding, as it’s clearing land directly behind the Nissan dealership to make room for another one.
The dealership stocks between 300 and 400 new cars on its lot.
Behind the dealership, several single-family homes have been built. The asking price for the new homes is $405,000, according to the developer’s website.
In addition to the car dealership, the area just north of Va. 610 now boasts at 7-Eleven and a new hotel.
