The redevelopment of the Palm Beach Post campus
is a shining example of creative adaptive re-use and expected to reinvigorate
the city’s Dixie Highway corridor.
Joseph’s, an upscale family-owned Italian
specialty market founded in 2005 by New York native and longtime Palm Beach
County resident Joseph Acierno,
is leasing more than 15,000 square feet at Shops at the Press.

Joseph’s was established to bring anyone who
loves food an exceptional shopping experience.
Shops at the Press is Joseph’s first West Palm
Beach location. Joseph’s has several additional locations in Palm Beach County,
including a recently opened market at Simon Property Group’s Town Center at
Boca Raton.
“We are thrilled to welcome Joseph’s Classic
Market to Shops at the Press,” Tricera Co-Founder
and Managing Principal Ben Mandell said.
“Our office
tenants next door will love having easy access to healthy, fresh gourmet
grab-and-go meals. Joseph’s also fills a major void for a high-quality upscale
specialty grocer that directly caters to the affluent surrounding community.”

“Our family cannot wait to bring our gourmet market and chef prepared meals to meet the daily needs of West Palm Beach residents and professionals,” Acierno said.
“We are a fourth generation, locally owned and
operated business that serves a delicious alternative to dining out and
provides an experience comparable to traditional restaurants at affordable
prices.”

Tricera expects to deliver the Joseph’s space in mid-2022. Meanwhile, the firm is nearing completion of the Starbucks outparcel on the project site at the hard corner of Belvedere Road and South Dixie Highway. The Starbucks is scheduled to open to the public in June 2021.
With The Press, Mandell and fellow Tricera Co-Founder and Managing Principal
Scott Sherman are bringing much-needed retail, offices, entertainment
and public art to West Palm Beach while preserving an important piece of the
city’s history.
Nearly all existing structures are to remain,
including the Post’s office building and printing press. The project name is a
nod to the Post’s legacy at the site.
