Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield Plans Redevelopment of 2.1 MSF Regional Mall in Northern New Jersey

by Taylor Williams August 22, 2022

PARAMUS, N.J. — Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield (URW), a shopping center owner-operator based in France, has unveiled plans to redevelop Westfield Garden State Plaza, a 2.1 million-square-foot regional mall in the Northern New Jersey community of Paramus. According to Forbes, Westfield Garden State Plaza remains one of the best-performing regional malls in the country. But about 10 years ago, URW began planning a long-term redevelopment to distinguish the property from and compete with American Dream, Triple Five Group’s entertainment-heavy mega-mall that is located within the Meadowlands sports complex in nearby East Rutherford. To that end, URW executive vice president Geoff Mason says that the redevelopment is about transitioning the mall into a mixed-use destination where living, working and leisure all come together. The first phase of the redevelopment will center on the construction of 550 luxury apartments that will be integrated with the existing shopping and dining establishments via open green space. Phase I will also introduce a “main street’ outdoor district featuring restaurants and everyday convenience- and services-oriented retailers. Ownership also plans to upgrade the existing infrastructure that connects to public transit services. Construction is scheduled to begin in 2024, with the first residential units becoming available for occupancy in 2026. The …

Industrial Retailers, Warehouse Users Rely on Ports, Rails to Provide Variety During Economic Uncertainty

by Sarah Daniels August 22, 2022

Amazon recently reconfigured and consolidated its network of warehouses, and many other retailers followed suit. The result? The outlook for industrial real estate, particularly retail warehouses, is now more difficult to interpret. Many retail clients are repositioning their supply chains to help avoid slowdowns and a potential International Warehouse Logistics Association (IWLA) union strike on the West Coast. This change has merged with a corporate need to find additional options for shipping and transport (especially as prices for transportation and industrial rents rise). The demand for industrial space has increased rapidly in less “congested” areas. As economic uncertainty continues, there is a shift towards tertiary markets for industrial real estate. This change provides significant opportunities for industrial investors, says Steve Pastor, VP of global supply chain, and ports/rail logistics/consultant at NAI James E. Hanson, who serves as NAI Global Industrial Council Chair. Investors and developers may be able to take advantage of a pause in a highly competitive field, in tertiary markets that have been traditionally less expensive than major and core markets. Amazon’s Impact News of Amazon’s plans to scale back its acquisition of industrial space (and to sublease its existing property to other retailers) has given some users opportunities …
