National retail owner grows footprint with acquisition of live-work-play street-level retail

Westwood Financial, a leading retail real estate investment firm with nearly 60 years of operational and transactional expertise, has acquired the 20,001-square-foot Glenridge Springs retail center in Sandy Springs. The acquisition underscores the firm’s continued push into affluent, high-growth markets throughout the Sunbelt.

Located at 5610 Glenridge Drive off I-285, Glenridge Springs is embedded in a true live-work-play environment that includes 168 luxury residences and 80,000 square feet of on-site office space. The development is home to major employers such as Go2Foods’ headquarters (~800 employees) and Haverty’s (~3,000 employees), helping generate consistent daily traffic. The property also benefits from close proximity to medical campuses, office towers, and dense residential neighborhoods with average household incomes above $178,000.

“Glenridge Springs is the kind of live-work-play environment where retailers want to be,” said Lauren Ball, COO of Westwood Financial. “With residents, major employers, and daily activity all in one place, it offers the convenience and customer flow tenants look for. We are confident that our strong operations will continue to elevate this destination for the community.”

Glenridge Springs features a diverse group of restaurant and service tenants, including Qdoba, Firehouse Subs, Blue Moon Pizza, Sushi Nami, Taziki’s Mediterranean, DaVinci’s Donuts, Venus Nail Lounge, and Beauty Enhanced. The center is currently 91% leased, supported by consistent demand from surrounding residential, office, and medical users.

“The Atlanta area remains one of the fastest-growing MSAs in the country, and Westwood Financial has carefully assembled our asset portfolio to reflect a focus on best-in-class neighborhood retail,” said KC Bills, CEO at Westwood Financial. “By deepening our footprint in metro Atlanta with Glenridge Springs, we are further positioning the firm as a retail leader in the Sunbelt region’s most dominant market.”

Earlier this year, the firm acquired Hembree Center in Alpharetta. Located at 1805 Hembree Rd., the 100% leased shopping complex features several service-oriented tenants.

Other Westwood Financial assets in metro Atlanta include Glenwood Park in Atlanta, Decatur Crossing in Decatur, Haynes Bridge Village in Johns Creek, Main Street at Town Center in Kennesaw, Publix at Cobb Parkway in Kennesaw, Village at Peachtree Corners in Peachtree Corners, Trinity Square in Decatur, and Village Place at Brookhaven in Brookhaven.
