The developers behind Midtown at Bonita in Lee County have signed two national tenants for the retail portion of the project currently under construction.
With the additions, the commercial piece of the 68-acre project is nearing 100,000 square feet of leased space.
The just-signed retailers are TJ Maxx and Ulta Beauty. The pair will join a roster that already includes Jeff’s Bagel Run, Gelato & Co., LowBrow Pizza, Mathnasium and a dental office operated by Pacific Dental Services.
The Zuckerman Group is the developer behind Midtown at Bonita on Bonita Beach Road just off Interstate 75. When complete, it will include 315,000 square feet of office space and apartments along with retail and restaurant space.
There are also plans to build a hotel on the site.
The pedestrian-friendly retail portion of the project began construction in November. Zuckerman says in a statement that several retail buildings are already close to being topped off. The first tenants are expected to take possession of their spaces this spring and begin building out their interior spaces.
TJ Maxx, the off-price retailer, currently operates 26 stores along the Gulf Coast. The Midtown at Bonita location will be its southernmost store on the coast.
As for Ulta, the beauty supply chain has 33 Gulf Coast locations.
