Big Blue Swim School leased 9,746 square feet at the Shoppes at North Brunswick, according to a Tuesday announcement from Azarian Realty Co., which represented the landlord.
Kevin Pelio, executive vice president of Azarian Realty Co., represented the Shoppes at North Brunswick and David Dunkelman of Soloff Realty & Development represented the Big Blue Swim School in the transaction.
Big Blue Swim School will add to the center’s already diverse mix of specialty stores, fitness and restaurants.
“We are delighted to add Big Blue Swim School to the Shoppes, which will round out our impressive and diverse lineup of retailers. Big Blue will offer the community a family-focused environment for children to have healthy physical fitness and hands-on training for this life-essential skill, that will last a lifetime,” Pelio said.
“In the evolution of the shopping center from a core soft good retail setting, to now a broad spectrum of food offerings, service and fitness offerings, as well as a continued roster of national clothing retailers, our vision is coming to fruition in strengthening the merchandising mix and increasing weekly customer visits. This lease now brings the shopping center to 94% occupied,” Pelio added.
Azarian Realty is the exclusive leasing agent for the Shoppes at North Brunswick
Big Blue Swim School has over 20 existing locations, with six more currently under construction throughout the U.S. This deal marks its third location in New Jersey, with the other two locations in Watchung and Paramus.
