JLL Capital Markets has closed the sale of Independence Square, a 140,218-square-foot, grocery-anchored retail center located in the Dallas suburb of Plano, Texas.

JLL represented the seller. Head Capital Partners acquired the asset.

Built in 1977 and renovated in 2005, the 94% leased center is grocery-anchored by a high-performing Tom Thumb that comprises 31% of the total rentable area and has operated as the anchor for 45 years. Tom Thumb’s parent company, Albertsons, is the second-largest supermarket chain in North America, with over 2,300 stores total and 65 stores in Texas. Additional tenants include Oscar Nail Lounge, Cookies by Design, Great Clips, Little Greek Restaurant, Frost Bank, Jersey Mike’s and Workout Anytime. The property receives approximately 850,000 visits every year.

Located at 3100 Independence Parkway, Independence Square sits at a high traffic intersection within a dense neighborhood population. The property caters to over 127,000 residents within three miles with an average household income of over $130,000, which is 20% above the Dallas-Fort Worth average. The center is also adjacent to heavy daytime traffic generators, including Plano High School to the south and four surrounding elementary schools in every direction. Additionally, it is just 35 minutes from Downtown Dallas and 15 minutes from the Legacy office submarket.

The JLL Retail Capital Markets team was led by Senior Managing Directors Chris Gerard and Barry Brown, Director Erin Lazarus and Associate Ben Esterer.

Lucid Private Offices, formerly known as WorkSuites, has signed a 31,000-square-foot lease at International Business Park located at 6275 W. Plano Parkway. The company will occupy the fifth floor of the newly constructed Class A office building.

JLL’s Trevor Franke and Gini Rounsaville represented Billingsley Company, the landlord, and CRESA’s John Pelletier and Austin Studebaker represented the tenant, Lucid Private Offices.

The five-story office building in the heart of Dallas’ Platinum Corridor features 48,000-square-foot floor plates, large windows, art installations, and balconies on multiple floors. It also overlooks a park with a walking trail and outdoor workspaces. Furthermore, the 10,000-square-foot amenity center next door includes a fitness center, conference center, tenant lounge and mini market.

Phase two of the International Business Park’s expansion will bring an additional 280,000 square feet of space to the market and is set to be delivered in March. The building, with balconies on Floor 4 and 5, will be the largest in the park and is expected to be 20% leased at the time of delivery.
