DWS Group’s RREEF Property Trust acquires Atlanta shopping center
DWS Group announced today that RREEF Property Trust, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZRPTAX; ZRPTIX; ZRPTTX), its publicly registered, daily NAV REIT, has acquired Providence Square, a five-building urban shopping center in north Atlanta, including a free-standing restaurant subject to a ground lease. The property, built in 1990 and renovated in 2015, totals 222,805 square feet and is anchored by three large retailers – organic grocer Sprouts Farmers, TJ Maxx/HomeGoods and Home Depot. The acquisition increases RREEF Property Trust’s assets under management to more than USD 325 million, and further diversifies the fund’s private real estate holdings based on sector, geography and tenant base.

Providence Square sits in the town of Marietta, approximately 15 miles north of the Atlanta metro area, and within the North Cobb County submarket. The property is strategically located at the heavily trafficked intersection of Roswell Road and Johnson Ferry Road, with an average daily traffic count of 75,000 vehicles. With more than 1,500 feet of frontage along the north side of Roswell Road, the center has attracted a mix of service, medical and dining tenants including Great Clips, GNC and Chili’s.

“Diversified and substantial investment from both corporate and government entities make the broader Atlanta area a desirable place to do business, while also fueling job and population growth. Necessity based brick-and-mortar centers like Providence Square are the beneficiaries of this continued growth, by meeting area residents’ daily service and dining needs,” said Todd Henderson, Head of Real Estate for the Americas. “We believe that community shopping centers leased to necessity based retailers have an important place in a portfolio and view the acquisition of Providence Square as a complementary addition to RREEF Property Trust’s growing portfolio of assets.”
