Levin Management Corporation (LMC), which manages both properties, announced that the popular gym franchise will be setting up shop at Blue Star shopping Center in Watchung and middlesex Corner in Middlesex Borough.
At Blue Star Shopping Center,Planet Fitness will occupy a spacious 21,850 square feet within the 420,000-square-foot retail center located on Route 22. The center is currently undergoing a major redevelopment spearheaded by LMC, with additional leasing opportunities ranging from 1,200 to 50,000 square feet.
Meanwhile, at Middlesex Corner, Planet Fitness will take over half of the freestanding building that was previously home to Acme on Route 28/Bound Brook Road.
Both new locations will be owned and operated by the same franchisee who already oversees dozens of Planet fitness gyms across New Jersey and other markets.
“fitness concepts are major players in today’s retail landscape and important traffic drivers for properties like Blue Star Shopping center and Middlesex Corner,” said Sidney Singer, LMC vice president of leasing.
“The last several years have seen an influx of boutique and affordable fitness concept leasing at LMC properties and nationwide. Chains like Planet Fitness ― those that provide an affordable, high-quality fitness experience in a welcoming, non-intimidating environment ― have proven especially accomplished at engaging consumers.”
