MILLERSVILLE, MARYLAND (March 28, 2024) – Broad Reach Retail Partners LLC, owner, operator, and developer of retail shopping centers, is thrilled to announce its most recent acquisition of Woodland Heights Shopping Center located in Streamwood, Illinois, a bustling village in Chicago’s northwestern suburbs.
Woodland Heights is a 120,436 SF neighborhood center anchored by a high-volume Jewel Osco, which has been a staple of the center since 1971 and has a record of strong annual sales. Strategically located in a densely populated area with a population of approximately 104k within a 3-mile radius, the center sits in a highly visible location that drives daytime and evening visitors to the center. In addition to the overall population, the center is in the heart of over 600 businesses, including the corporate offices for both Target and Walmart. The center’s prime location has driven success for tenants, which you can see through the historical tenancies of Jewel Osco, USPS, Subway, and H&R Block, which have been part of the center for over 25 years.
“We are thrilled to add Woodland Heights Shopping Center to our portfolio. Coupled with strong sales and occupancy history, this center presents a great value-add opportunity on which we are excited to execute. Acquisitions continue to be difficult in 2024 and our team did a great job working together and getting this deal across the finish line.” – Jim Whelan, Jr., Vice President of Acquisitions.
At 86% occupied, Woodland Heights has approximately 16,320 sf of leasable spaces available. The goal with any property added to Broad Reach Retail Partner’s portfolio is to continue to add value to this property and the community it serves. Our team will look at doing that through a strategic analysis of the retail voids in the area.
