BARNEGAT, NJ-The 650,000-sf retail component of the Stafford Park mixed-use development will be leased exclusively by Metro Commercial Real Estate. With Target established as a main anchor, three anchor positions, eight mid-sized retail tenants and a dozen boutiques and restaurants are needed to fill the park.

The residential/retail complex, to be built on the current site of the Stafford Business Park by the locally based Walters Group, will have 565 age-restricted residential units, 110 affordable housing units and 25,000 sf of office space. A village center separate from the retail component will have an addition 70,000 sf of retail and restaurants. A recreation component includes a 66,000-sf ice skating rink.

"There's a tremendous amount of interest in the project from national, regional and local tenants," says Daniel Brickner of Metro Commercial's Pennsylvania office in Conshohocken. "We're currently in negotiation with a variety of retail uses including electronics, books, apparel, sporting goods and restaurants."
