PALO ALTO, CA-Popular furniture retailer Ikea is looking to establish roots in another Bay Area location. The company is negotiating for the 10-acre lot at Ravenswood 101 Retail center in East Palo Alto, which could hold a 250,000- to 350,000-sf building with 1,500 parking spaces. Represented by BT Commercial in Oakland, Ikea also is said to be seeking a location along the 580/680 corridor, making Pleasanton a possibility. The chain currently has a 274,000-sf store in Emeryville, which sits on 15 acres and includes 1,100 parking spaces.
