SANTA MONICA, Calif., Sept. 28, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Macerich (NYSE: MAC), one of the nation’s leading owners, operators and developers of high-quality retail and mixed-use properties in top markets, today highlighted the success of the fully remerchandised former Sears space at Kings Plaza, the only enclosed mall in Brooklyn.

New stores now open in the former Sears box – including a three-level Target, which just opened in August, as well as Primark, Zara and Burlington – are expected to deliver combined annual sales representing nearly eight times more than Sears.

“The tremendous success of the new Target at Kings Plaza, combined with strong performance for Primark, Zara and Burlington, each of which have been open since 2018 in the former Sears location, demonstrates the power and promise of Kings Plaza, Macerich’s well-located, fully enclosed retail center in Brooklyn,” said Eric Bunyan, Senior Vice President of Leasing, East Region, for Macerich. “These national brands selecting Kings Plaza endorses how valuable it is to be at our outstanding property in Brooklyn, where traffic and sales continue to increase thanks to the variety of great new brands we are attracting in many categories. These include Shake Shack and Ashley Furniture, which are both doing great, and we’re currently exploring opportunities for a 50,000-square-foot location on the corner of Flatbush Avenue and Avenue U, which has terrific visibility and access.”

Bunyan added, “Macerich’s proven leasing approach, which creates properties that mean more things to more people, is appealing to a wider set of demographics, including affluent shoppers who live in Kings Plaza’s dynamic trade area.”

Leasing changes combined with targeted renovations have made Kings Plaza one of the most successful shopping centers in the market, further establishing Macerich’s foothold in the New York City metro area. Macerich also owns Green Acres, Queens Center, Atlas Park and Danbury Fair Mall. In addition to the complete transformation of the front of Kings Plaza along Flatbush Avenue in 2018 with the redevelopment of the former Sears store, other recent renovations designed to enhance the customer experience at Kings Plaza included brightening and lightening the attached parking deck and adding new lighting, furnishings and flooring in the center’s second level.
