ISSAQUAH, WA-East Lake Sammamish Center’s 400,000-sf of retail space is nearing completion. Located just north of Interstate 90 at the confluence of and Issaquah-Fall City Road and East Lake Sammamish, the 48-acre property is a fraction of the extensive development going on in the former gravel pits here. Adjacent projects include an office campus, single-family homes, apartments, condos and an assisted living facility.

Fred Meyer will be the new strip mall’s largest anchor. The Portland-OR based chain is constructing one of its new prototype stores, a 165,347-sf full-service property with a grocery and deli, jewelry store, and other departments including housewares, apparel, garden, and home-improvements. Home Depot, the second largest of the two anchor stores, purchased its 12.5 acre pad in the center from Johnson Underwood Properties for $11.75 million. According to records, the home-improvement chain will build a 130,740-sf property there, consisting of a 115,000-sf store and 14,000-sf garden center. In term of overall sales volume, Home Depot is the world’s largest home-improvement retailer.
