Urban Edge Properties (NYSE:UE) announced today that it has signed almost 60,000 SF in new leases at Bruckner Commons, introducing high-demand concepts to the area to open in the next 12 months. Aldi (21,976SF) and Lot Less (15,082 SF) bring important value/essential retail, while Buffalo Wild Wings Go (1,666 SF) will introduce a new to-go-only concept highlighting their most popular menu items in a to-go format. Also at the street level, Saloncentric (1,977 SF) brings beauty supplies for professionals, providing a needed resource for neighboring tenant Phenix Salons and others in the area. On the second floor, JAG-ONE (4,000SF) will deliver physical and occupational therapy services.
The property has also recently signed a lease with Target, leading Bruckner Commons’ transformation into a marquee 510,000 square foot center currently merchandised with best-in-class retailers including ShopRite, Marshalls, Burlington, and Five Below.
“With Aldi and Lot Less taking significant positions at Shops at Bruckner, the property continues to build on its reputation as a real community destination,” said Scott Auster, Executive Vice President and Head of Leasing at Urban Edge. “When all of these tenants are open alongside a brand-new Target, we expect to see a boost in consumer traffic to benefit the entire neighborhood.”
Located at the intersection of the Bruckner Expressway (I-287) and White Plains Road in The Bronx, New York, Bruckner Commons serves more than 700,000 people living within three miles of the property and is easily accessible to the 80,000 vehicles that pass the property each day.
