A private investor owns most of the retail land to the east of Target in the center, which is at McKee and Fitchrona roads. There is a portion of land that is not owned by the investor that is still vacant, abutting Target; and about 70,000 square feet of retail is planned north of this parcel. Gold's will anchor almost 80,000 square feet further east, with some out-lots also planned, says Steve Doran with Lee & Associates. Doran represented Gold's in the lease, and EZ Nesbitt LLC represented the property owner. Lease rates for the new retail will be in the mid-$20s, he says.
