Chesapeake, VA — Divaris Real Estate announces the renewal and expansion of the United States Coast Guard Community Services Command (CSC) lease in the Battlefield Technology Center I, located at 510 Independence Parkway in Chesapeake.

The United States Coast Guard CSC renewed its existing lease and expanded from 23,568 s/f to a total of 46,992 s/f by adding 23,424 s/f of additional space. Gerald Divaris, Chairman and CEO of Divaris Real Estate, negotiated the transaction on behalf of the tenant, and Brian Devlin, senior vice president, Divaris Real Estate, represented the landlord.

The CSC directly manages 66 retail exchange stores, commissaries, and gas stations through a centralized Coast Guard Exchange System (CGX), provides oversight and management to 49 satellite exchanges on ships throughout the Coast Guard, and provides program oversight and funding to Morale, Welfare, and Recreation (MWR) programs at over 1200 Coast Guard units globally.
