First National Realty Partners Acquires Illinois Retail Center
First National Realty Partners (FNRP) closed on Townes Crossing, a 105,731-square-foot shopping center located in Oswego, Illinois, in an off-market acquisition. Evan Halkias of Cushman & Wakefield represented the seller in this transaction.
Townes Crossing is anchored by a 65,000-square-foot Jewel-Osco grocery store, a subsidiary of Albertsons. A tenant at the center for over 30 years, it is the top grocer by market share in the Chicago MSA, according to Axios Chicago. Jewel-Osco is joined by daily-needs retailers, including Phenix Salon Suites, Oswego Dental, The UPS Store, and Subway.
“Townes Crossing marks our fourth off-market acquisition in 2024. This off-market activity is a testament to FNRP’s platform as our team continues to be one of the most active acquirers of grocery-anchored retail in the country,” commented Mike Hazinski, chief investment officer.
