Heidenberg Buys Raleigh's Triangle Town Place

Heidenberg Properties Group, Norse Realty Group, and DG Raleigh acquired Triangle Town Place, a 148,538-square-foot shopping center in Raleigh, North Carolina. The center is anchored by a 75,000-square-foot Dick's Sporting Goods and a 31,067-square-foot Nordstrom Rack.

Why it matters

The center is more than 92% occupied and sits in a market where retail vacancy is 2.5%, a tight backdrop for commercial space in the city. Heidenberg says it entered Raleigh to gain exposure to a high-growth core market and expand its portfolio further South.

The 148,538-square-foot center is anchored by a 75,000-square-foot Dick's Sporting Goods and a 31,067-square-foot Nordstrom Rack, with Designer Shoe Warehouse and Dollar Tree also among its tenants. The property sits on Sumner Blvd. off U.S. Route 1, which carries about 50,000 vehicles per day, and 675 parking spaces across 15.34 acres.
