A new Pizza Hut is taking shape on Ehringhaus Street in Elizabeth City, with construction crews working through plumbing and electrical installation. Work at the site is progressing toward the next construction milestone.
Construction is underway on the new location, according to WCTI, which reported that Stocks & Taylor Construction is handling the build. The crew is installing plumbing and electrical systems and preparing the building pad for a concrete slab pour next week, per Stocks & Taylor Construction.
Builder Says It's Proud to Bring the Chain to Town
Stocks & Taylor Construction said it is proud to help bring a new Pizza Hut to the community, and the company said it will share more updates as construction continues. The firm has not detailed a construction schedule beyond the upcoming slab pour or named a target completion date.
The future restaurant will sit at 1209 Ehringhaus St., according to Pizza Hut's own location listing.
Part of a Broader Restaurant Build-Out
The Pizza Hut project follows other chain restaurant activity in Elizabeth City in recent years. Back in May 2024, The Daily Advance reported that construction was well underway on a new Texas Roadhouse off Halstead Boulevard Extended, describing it as one of three new chain restaurants expected to open a location in the city, alongside Chipotle and Johnny Rockets. That earlier report did not address whether those projects have since opened.
For now, the Pizza Hut build remains in its early structural phase, with the concrete slab pour representing the next visible milestone. Stocks & Taylor Construction has indicated more updates will follow as work progresses on the Ehringhaus Street site.
