(PRWEB) April 21, 2005 -- The Hampshire Companies, a private real estate funds manager, has purchased a development site on which an 80,000 sq. ft. single-tenant retail building is now under construction, in Rockaway, New Jersey. The building is pre leased to a national retailer, and is projected to open for business in First Quarter 2006. The acquisition, made on behalf of Hampshire Partners Fund VI, is valued at approximately $9,000,000.
The property is conveniently situated adjacent to the Rockaway Townsquare Mall, a regional mall in Northwest New Jersey, offering great accessibility in a prime location, just off Interstate 80 at Exit 35.
"Rockaway Townsquare Mall is the signature retail location in Northwest New Jersey," said Norman A. Feinstein, Executive Vice President of the Hampshire Companies. We are delighted with this acquisition, especially because a long-term lease is in place with a high credit tenant."
