CBRE Takes Charge of St. Marys Waterfront Revival | Savannah News

The shuttered 700-acre Gilman Paper mill site in St. Marys is getting a fresh start—with CBRE, a global real estate giant, now leading the charge to find the right developers to transform it into a thriving mixed-use waterfront destination. Chosen after a rigorous four-month review of six proposals, CBRE will target seasoned players with expertise in master-planned communities, marinas, and hospitality, especially those who’ve successfully revived waterfront properties. The project, spurred by the collapse of previous developer Cumberland Inlet, aims to create a year-round economic engine for locals and tourists alike—with CBRE’s fee tied to the winning developer, not the local authority. This is a big bet, but one with the potential to turn a forgotten industrial relic into St. Marys’ next vibrant hub.
