CHICAGO, MILWAUKEE—HSA Commercial Real Estate has just executed a lease with J. Crew to open the retailer's second Mercantile-branded store in the country at The Mayfair Collection shopping center in Wauwatosa, WI. The lease gives another boost to the landmark project, which has repurposed functionally obsolete warehouse buildings along Hwy. 45 into new, contemporary retail environments.
J. Crew Mercantile will occupy Suite 110 between Ulta and Men's Wearhouse in the project's first phase. J. Crew announced earlier this year that it was opening its first Mercantile store at the Nordstrom Rack-anchored The Shops at Park Lane in Dallas, TX.
“From the outset of this project, our strategy has always been to find best-in-class fashion brands that can attract customers throughout southeast Wisconsin,” says Timothy Blum, executive vice president of retail development for Chicago-based HSA Commercial. “With this being J. Crew Mercantile's second store in the country, we believe that we have further fulfilled that goal, and we are excited to have them as part of The Mayfair Collection.”
