Publix Opening Completes Boynton Lakes Plaza Redevelopment in Florida



BOYNTON BEACH, FL--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Regency Centers (NYSE:REG) completed the redevelopment of Boynton Lakes Plaza, a 117,124-square-foot neighborhood center in Boynton Beach, Fla., which included the addition of a 45,000-square-foot Publix.

The new anchor relocated from an undersized store in a nearby center and is slated to open on June 9.

Boynton Lake Plaza’s redevelopment included the demolition of a former Winn-Dixie store and the construction of anchor and side shop space, new exterior facade and architectural components, parking lot improvements, upgraded lighting and landscaping.

Local artist Suzi K. Edwards (lower left photo) was commissioned to create a mosaic tile archway to further enhance the center’s aesthetics.

“The opening of a new, larger store by market-leading grocer Publix offers area residents a better grocery experience, as well as adds vibrancy to the center,” said Josh Spooner (lower right photo), vice president of investments for Regency Centers.

“Regency is proud to be an active member of this region’s retail business community. We have 14 shopping centers throughout the South Florida market, and we are committed to investing, upgrading and maintaining quality shopping centers that meet the needs of our neighborhoods.”

As part of Regency’s greengenuity® program to reduce the environmental impact of developing and operating shopping centers, the project incorporated basic sustainable elements such as recycling building materials, installing heat-reflective roof material and employing environmentally friendly plumbing fixtures, paint and coatings.

Located one mile west of Interstate 95 at the intersection of Congress Avenue and Hypoluxo Road in Boynton Beach, Boynton Lakes Plaza includes national retailers such as Hair Cuttery and Dunkin’ Donuts. The center is located at 4753 N. Congress Ave. For leasing information, contact Ross Kirchman at 561-630-2314.

The center was built in 1994 and acquired by Regency in 1997.
