Kids Empire’s National Expansion Includes Montclair

Kids Empire, a children’s indoor playground, signed a 10-year lease for 10,685 square feet at 5060 East Montclair Plaza Lane in Montclair, CA. This is the third location in California for Kids Empire, and it is part of a 20-park expansion plan.

The location is at CIM Group’s 1.35-million-square-foot Montclair Place, which is currently undergoing a renovation. The dated 72-acre center, which was built in 1968, is being redeveloped with new uses.

Kidder Mathews’ Stephan Ktorza represented Kids Empire in the transaction.

“National landlords of retail space are looking for entertainment-based tenants to bring more visitors to their shopping centers,” said Ktorza.
