Kohl’s to Open Off/Aisle Store at HSA Commercial’s Mayfair Collection in Wauwatosa, WI


Tim Blum
CHICAGO, IL — Chicago-based HSA Commercial Real Estate announced Kohl’s will open an Off/Aisle store at The Mayfair Collection in Wauwatosa, Wis. 

The new 23,392-square-foot store, scheduled to open in spring 2016, will be located in the last remaining anchor space between Dick’s Sporting Goods and Ulta Beauty in the prominent shopping center development’s first phase. 

Off/Aisle offers customers who love to shop an exciting opportunity to browse and hunt for thrilling prices on quality merchandise from a trusted retailer, including apparel, accessories and home items at an incredible discount. The first pilot opened in Cherry Hill, N.J., in June 2015.

“We believe The Mayfair Collection offers the perfect venue for Kohl’s to launch their new store concept, which is a big reason why we are so excited to have them as our final anchor for Phase 1,” said Tim Blum of HSA Commercial Real Estate.

“By having other category leaders such as Nordstrom Rack and DSW nearby, Off/Aisle will be well-positioned to introduce the store to target customers from across the Midwest.”

Phase 1 of The Mayfair Collection – anchored by Nordstrom Rack, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5TH, DSW and more – opened to large crowds of customers in April 2014. 

The project’s construction consisted of adaptively repurposing functionally obsolete warehouse buildings along Highway 45 into new, contemporary retail environments. 

The Mayfair Collection’s second phase will be anchored by a 45,150-square-foot Whole Foods Market, scheduled to open in March 2016.

Kohl’s Corporation was represented in the lease transaction by Yoni Zvi of EDG18 Commercial Real Estate.

Passco Companies Acquires Core Retail Asset With Strong Tenant Mix in Affluent Rancho Cucamonga, CA Market


Day Creek Village Shopping Center, Rancho Cucamonga, CA

Bob Peterson
Inland Empire, California  – Passco Companies, LLC,  has acquired Day Creek Village, a 100-percent leased neighborhood shopping center in Rancho Cucamonga, the second largest submarket in California’s Inland Empire market.

“This property is a strong addition to our portfolio based on its excellent tenant mix and local demographics,” explains Bob Peterson, Vice President of retail acquisitions for Passco Companies. “We continue to seek stabilized retail assets in growing markets with the potential for strong performance over time.”

Peterson notes that the Inland Empire boasts a population of 4.5 million residents, with the population immediately surrounding Day Creek Village projected to grow by more than five percent in the next five years. 

Further, Rancho Cucamonga’s median household income is 47 percent higher than the Inland Empire as a whole.  In the one-mile radius of the center, the average household income is $111,000.

These facts translate to strong consumer buying power that will drive value for the asset, according to Peterson.

“This center has generated positive cash flow since it was built,” explains Peterson.  “It is located in a growing market, and has commanded increasing asking rates over the last two years.”

CJ Osbrink
The 25,002 square-foot Day Creek Village shopping center is shadow-anchored by a Ralph’s grocery store, and currently has 14 tenants, including Starbucks, Wells Fargo, Super Cuts, Subway, and Orange Theory Fitness.

Peterson notes, “This submarket has not delivered any new retail inventory since 2009, making Day Creek Village one of the newest centers in the area.  Based on the asset’s strong tenants and limited competition in this growing Southern California market, we are confident in this acquisition.”

Day Creek Village is located at 12223 - 12273 Highland Avenue in Rancho Cucamonga, California.  The property is situated at the intersection of Day Creek Boulevard and Highland Avenue, in close proximity to the 210 Freeway, and is visible to a traffic count of 21,000 vehicles each day along Day Creek Boulevard.

Passco Companies acquired the center for $15.8 million.  HFF’s CJ Osbrink and Gleb Lvovich represented both Passco as the buyer and Day Creek Village, LLC as the seller in this off-market transaction.
