River City Marketplace is a grocery-anchored shopping center in O’Fallon, MO

First National Realty Partners Expands Missouri Holdings

First National Realty Partners, LLC (FNRP) has added River City Marketplace in the St. Louis suburb of O’Fallon, MO to its grocery-anchored shopping center portfolio. This 158,000-square-foot asset marks the vertically integrated real estate firm’s expansion in Missouri and continues its nationwide growth in the open-air retail property sector.   

River City Marketplace is anchored by a 31,000-square-foot Fresh Thyme Market, which has been a tenant since 2015. The O’Fallon store is one of the five most visited locations for the private regional supermarket chain, which operates more than 75 stores in 11 Midwestern states. 

“River City Marketplace’s strategic regional location offers FNRP an exceptional opportunity to expand our presence in the St. Louis MSA,” said Stephen Joseph, director of acquisitions at Red Bank, NJ-based FNRP.  

Evan Halkias, David Matheis and Link Dierks of Cushman and Wakefield represented the seller in the River City Marketplace transaction.
