Vintage Real Estate Buys Massachusetts Regional Mall Out of Foreclosure

Vintage Real Estate acquired The Mall at Whitney Field, a 700,000-sq.-ft. regional center in Leominster, Mass.

The Mall at Whitney Field was last sold in 2007 for $82 million. The lender on its $74.5 million loan foreclosed on the property in November 2010, with a $72.2 million loan balance remaining.

The mall was completed in 1967 and underwent a renovation in 2001. Macy’s, Sears, J.C. Penney, Market Basket, Toys ‘R’ Us and Old Navy anchor the property. Concurrently with the acquisition, Vintage signed a 10-year lease with the Burlington Coat Factory for a 66,000-sq.-ft. store. The retailer will open in the first quarter of 2014.

“The Mall at Whitney Field remains a dominant retail center in the area. Our ability to immediately fill a large and long-vacant space is a testament to the strength of the market and our leasing and management team that is overseeing the property,” said Vintage Real Estate Chairman Fred Sands in a statement.
