ATLANTA, GA –– Holliday
Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announced it has closed the sale of the Colonnade,
a 127,031-square-foot retail specialty center in Birmingham, Alabama.
HFF marketed the property
on behalf of the seller, DRA Advisors LLC, on behalf of its institutional
clients. A group led by Shannon Waltchack purchased the asset
free and clear of existing debt.

Gold’s Gym, Edgar’s Old Style Bakery, Taziki’s Mediterranean Café, Scottrade,
Cracker Barrel, Johnny Ray’s BBQ, Jimmy John’s, Asian Rim Sushi Company,
