Work-from-Home Boosts Suburban Minneapolis Retail Market

by Kristin Harlow March 3, 2022

The metro Minneapolis retail real estate market is healthy overall coming out of 2021, with suburban submarkets on fire in many cases and urban submarkets generally subdued. A major overhang of supply was absorbed across the region last year as construction slowed dramatically, pushing retail vacancies down, rents up and sales prices of single and multi-tenant assets higher overall. It’s a testament to the market’s overall stability and resilience given the multiple waves of COVID, and events surrounding the George Floyd case that was prosecuted last year in the city. Work-from-home effect With many white-collar professionals still working from home and the center-cities tougher on mask mandates and vaccine requirements, the suburbs have shone the brightest. Vacancies were as low as 6 percent in some areas, with the overall market at 8.2 percent at year-end, according to the Minnesota Commercial Association of Real Estate/Realtors (MNCAR). Among the strongest performing submarkets have been Apple Valley, Maple Grove, Coon Rapids and Woodbury. The metro’s eight regional malls are generally faring well, unlike in some other markets across the U.S. that are more over-supplied. That said, there’s some adaptive reuse going on, including in the northwest suburb of Maple Grove where a freestanding …

Habitat to Build 33-Story Apartment Tower in Downtown Chicago

by John Nelson February 15, 2022

CHICAGO — The Habitat Co., a Chicago-based multifamily developer and operator, plans to build a 33-story apartment high-rise in its hometown. The firm closed on the site acquisition at 344 N. Canal St. in Chicago’s Fulton River District that is currently home to the five-story Cassidy Tire brick building. Designed by Solomon Cordwell Buenz, the new tower will rise 375 feet and feature a glass façade. Habitat’s joint venture partner on the project is Diversified Real Estate Capital LLC, a private equity investment firm based in Chicago. The land seller was not disclosed. “As we know from experience, there will always be a demand for Class A rentals in prime city locations like 344 N. Canal, so the fact that a highly experienced and successful developer like The Habitat Co. was behind the building only made it that much more attractive for us to be part of the project,” says Jeff Cherner, executive vice president of Diversified Real Estate Capital. Habitat Co. will begin demolition and break ground on the 343-unit property this spring, though a target delivery date was not disclosed. Upon completion, the unnamed community will feature a mix of studio, one- and two-bedroom units, as well as …

Mixed-Use Projects, Mall Redevelopments Headline Triangle’s Retail Development Activity

by John Nelson February 7, 2022

The end of 2021 in Raleigh-Durham was marked by robust retail leasing and an increased level of investment sales in our suburbs and infill trade areas. Downtown Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill have lagged in activity, although each urban environment started to see a resurgence by mid-year, and notably Downtown Raleigh ended 2021 with record retail leasing activity. Population growth and major economic development announcements are driving these positive trends. Apple, Google, FujiFilm, several life sciences companies and most recently Toyota (just east of the Raleigh-Durham region) have highlighted economic expansion. Strong demand and a healthy retail construction pipeline have held retail vacancy to 7.1 percent despite headwinds from the COVID-19 pandemic. The healthy retail development pipeline includes several new mixed-use projects. Cary will see one of the largest active mixed-use projects in the Southeast deliver this year when Fenton opens in the spring. Hines and Columbia Development are currently finalizing the first phases of the project. Spread over 92 acres, Fenton will initially include retailers such as Pottery Barn, Williams-Sonoma and Superica, as well as apartments and office space. Over in Research Triangle Park (RTP), the Research Triangle Foundation and White Point Partners have announced Horseshoe at Hub RTP. …
