Development of the Month: Capital Group Properties signs four new tenants at Northborough Crossing Phase II

Northborough, MA Capital Group Properties has signed four new tenants at Northborough Crossing Phase II (lower level), an open-air retail development. With the lease signed in May of this year, Mattress Firm opened in September. 

Code Ninjas, a new to the area education concept, offering a place for kids to learn through an engaging, game-based curriculum that teaches teamwork, logic, math and problem solving, celebrated their grand opening on October 16th. Capital Group Properties was thrilled to take part in the expansion of this exciting new brand which has recently opened new locations in: Wellesley, Medfield and Canton, Mass. Selecting a new location can be challenging, especially for a new concept being introduced to the community. 

“The demographics of Northborough were a perfect fit for our business needs and growth. The response from the local community has been phenomenal, with over 200 interested students before the center was open for business” said Rakhee Aparaju, the Code Ninjas Center manager. 

In addition to Mattress Firm and Code Ninjas, Capital Group Properties has signed Anzio’s Brick Oven Pizza. They are relocating their restaurant from Grafton, to a new 4,300 s/f restaurant space at Northborough Crossing. Anzio’s is preparing to open by early November. The restaurant is known in the community for serving thin crust, Neo-Neapolitan cuisine. Capital Group is very excited to have this local restaurant join Northborough Crossing in a time where people prefer to dine at local establishments over large restaurant chains. 

The most recent new tenant is Mathnasium, which is slated to open their doors in early December. Mathnasium will provide mathematics instruction to students from pre-kindergarten through high school, “Mathnasium of Northborough is excited to be a part of Northborough Crossing. We chose the location because it is family-friendly, centrally located, and modern,” said the center’s director. 

Northborough Crossing is continuing to mature into a true community based shopping center. In addition to the variety of restaurants, medical users and retail tenants that complement the development, Avalon’s luxury apartments complete the live-work-play lifestyle offering. 

Capital Group Properties is consistently striving to attract a diverse array of best in-class offerings to our retail properties and to add variety and convenience to the local community. We are thrilled to have these new additions at Northborough Crossing,” said William Depietri, president of Capital Group Properties

Northborough Crossing is a 650,000 s/f mixed-use regional shopping center that is located at the intersection of Rte. 9 and Rte. 20.
