KeyPoint Partners assumes leasing and management at Parkade Plaza
North Adams, MA KeyPoint Partners (KPP) is handling property management and leasing for Parkade Plaza, a 127,626 s/f retail center in an historic community bordering Williamstown, within sight of Mount Greylock in the Berkshires. KPP was awarded the contracts by the new owner.
Parkade Plaza is bordered by Main St., Ashland St., and American Legion Hwy., with visibility and access from Rte. 8 and Rte. 2. Tenants at the center include Planet Fitness, Dollar Tree, Label Shopper, H&R Block, T-Mobile, Papa Ginos, and Rent-A-Center. A new Liquor World store will open at the center soon.
Parkade Plaza is close to town offices and services, the RMV, Berkshire Health Systems Medical Center, Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts, and in walking distance of Mass MOCA, a world-class modern art museum and major area visitor attraction.
“There are number of opportunities in various sizes for a variety of uses: retail, entertainment, medical and health, personal service, and others,” said to Rob Grady, vice president of retail brokerage at KPP. “We’re hoping to create a mix of local, regional, and national tenants that will reinvigorate the center and enhance the North Adams downtown area. We’re open to all inquiries”.
