Whiteland Towne Center
at one of the major retail intersections serving all of Chester County, Rte. 30 and Rte. 100. Whiteland Towne Center is shadow-anchored by Kohl’s Department Store and Hobby Lobby, which opened in November 2016 following the departure of Acme Markets in 2012. Nathanson said, “The re- cent leasing activity along with Whiteland Towne Cen- ter’s current occupancy of 79 percent provided investors a value-add opportunity to take advantage of the evolving retail market in Exton in an attractive demographic mar- ket with average household incomes exceeding $126,000. With very few sizable oppor- tunities to come to market with superior positioning and comparable demos as White- land, investors were attracted to the prospect to build upon the 26,000 s/f of recent leas- ing and continue to transform the asset in one of the best retail submarkets serving the suburbs of Philadelphia. A perfect marriage existed in the end with the selected pur- chaser. Abrams Realty and Development brings over 20 years of retail expertise in developing and operating over 2.5 million s/f within the MSA coupled with Gorman & Company, the original devel- opers of the largest office park within the Exton submarket, Oaklands Corporate Center, at over 2 million s/f.” “We are obviously bullish on Exton,” said Jim Gor- man , principal of Gorman & Company. “Whiteland Towne Center represents an opportu- nity to reposition an asset we know well, in a great township with an increasing demand for more services. Abrams is the perfect partner to help us execute this.” n
