At the Center of Progress: Why YourSpace Hotels Chesapeake Is the Smart Stay for Workforce Teams

The Hampton Roads region is in the middle of an incredible infrastructure and industrial expansion. From port terminals to new distribution centers and energy upgrades, thousands of skilled workers, engineers, and contractors are driving the projects shaping the future of southeastern Virginia.

At YourSpace Hotels Chesapeake, we’re right at the center of it all — providing a comfortable, flexible home base for workforce teams who need long-term lodging that works as hard as they do.

Major Projects Fueling Growth in Hampton Roads

Across Chesapeake, Suffolk, and Portsmouth, the construction landscape is booming. Here are some of the most impactful developments happening just minutes from our hotel:

1. Chesapeake Square Mall Redevelopment – 2 miles away

2. Bowers Hill Interchange Expansion – I-664 Corridor

• VDOT’s environmental impact study for the Bowers Hill Interchange Improvements outlines major highway redesigns to ease congestion and connect I-664, I-64, and Route 58 — a massive, multi-year infrastructure project that’s set to bring hundreds of contractors to the region.

3. Port 460 Logistics Center, Suffolk
4. The Port 460 Logistics Center, a 540-acre industrial park, will feature more than 5 million square feet of warehouse and distribution space tied directly to the Port of Virginia. It’s one of the largest private logistics investments in the Mid-Atlantic.
5. Port of Virginia & Maersk Terminal Expansion

• The Port of Virginia is completing a $450 million dredging and widening initiative to accommodate larger container ships and boost throughput at the Maersk/APM Terminals in Portsmouth. This long-term maritime investment is driving steady workforce demand across Hampton Roads.

5. Cavalier Industrial Park & Regional Energy Upgrades

• Cavalier Industrial Park in Chesapeake continues to attract new businesses in logistics, distribution, and light manufacturing. Simultaneously, Dominion Energy’s transmission line upgrades and regional gas line expansions are increasing contractor traffic throughout Chesapeake and Suffolk.
