According to Charter Realty and Development, seven new commercial deals are currently underway for the final phase at the Storrs Center. This center, which is located just across from the campus of the University of Connecticut, has been a work in progress for the last three years.
Storrs campus, which has long been the flagship campus of UCONN, historically had very little retail space for its students, not to mention limited off campus housing. The Storrs Center's 340,000 s/f multi-use center combines 200,000 s/f of commercial real estate space, and 140,000 s/f of residential real estate. Anchored by Price Chopper, CVS, and the UCONN Health Center, plus numerous restaurants such as Dog Lane Café, Moe's Southwest Grill, Subway, Breugger's Bagels and Husky Pizza to name just a few. Storrs Center attracts students, faculty members and nearby residents.
The first three phases of the center are now all 100% leased. Remaining space available ranges from 450 s/f up to 3,000 s/f with space being ready to occupy by this summer.
