HUNTSVILLE, AL— Matthews™, a commercial real estate investment services and technology firm, completed the sale of Florence Square, located at 105-189 Cox Creek Parkway S in Florence, Alabama. Matthews™ Senior Vice Presidents Kyle Stonis and Pierce Mayson facilitated the transaction.

 

Located within the Alabama North Area submarket, the 220,571-square-foot multi-tenant retail center serves as a dominant retail destination for the greater Florence trade area. Florence Square is anchored by Academy Sports & Outdoors, T.J. Maxx, and PetSmart, and features a diverse mix of nationally recognized service, dining, and specialty retailers.

 

Leveraging a long-standing relationship with both the seller and the buyer, an affiliate of Hackney Real Estate Partners, the Matthews™ agents were strategically positioned to connect the right capital with the asset’s robust underlying fundamentals, advancing the seller’s disposition goals while creating a clear path to enhance the center’s long-term value. By securing a buyer who recognized a clear opportunity to replace near-term occupants with long-term credit anchors, Matthews™ effectively navigated the nuances of near-term lease expirations to bring the transaction to a successful close.

 

“We were thrilled to successfully arrange the sale of Florence Square to one of our favorite and long-time clients,” Stonis said. “They are the perfect owner to continue to elevate the Center, which presents a rare, strong, and immediately actionable opportunity to add significant value.”
