Fitness Connection is latest addition to Shops at Tech Ridge – MyStatesman.com

Posted: 12:00 a.m. Saturday, March 25, 2017

RD Management took ownership of Shops at Tech Ridge, 12901 N. Interstate 35, last year.

This will be the second Fitness Connection in Austin. The first is near Lakeline Mall.

A New York real estate firm is wasting no time filling up empty storefronts at a North Austin shopping center it recently acquired.

RD Management last year took ownership of Shops at Tech Ridge, 12901 N. Interstate 35, shortly after a SuperTarget store closed, leaving more than 100,000 square feet of space vacant.

First, RD Management and The Retail Connection, which handles leasing for the center, landed Floor & Dcor, a flooring superstore. Now, they say Fitness Connection is also on the way.

The gym will occupy 55,000 square feet in the 504,154-square-foot center.

This will be the second Fitness Connection in Austin. The first is near Lakeline Mall in Northwest Austin.

Fitness Connection is one of the newest and fastest growing health club chains in the U.S., and we are eager to bring a facility that offers top-notch fitness classes, personal training and nutritional services to the community, said Richard Birdoff, principal and president of RD Management. We are working diligently to bring in additional businesses of this caliber to Shops at Tech Ridge that will best serve Austins rapidly growing population.

Theres still some space in the former SuperTarget building that needs filling, and RD Management is also planning to construct two freestanding buildings for businesses such as banks or restaurants. There has been a high level of interest for the balance of this space, RD Management and The Retail Connection said.

We have very much enjoyed this collaborative project with RD Management, said Lance Morris, president of The Retail Connection in Austin. Shops at Tech Ridge represents a unique chance to bring our two companies expertise together to curate a diverse tenant mix of home dcor, apparel, fitness and other key retailer categories in an established open shopping center in North Austin.

Center lands tenants

Springdale General, an East Austin commercial development geared toward makers and creatives, has secured its first two tenants.

Caffe Medici coffeehouse and the Notley Group have both signed multi-year leases at the project, at 1023 Springdale Road, according to the developer, Central Austin Management Group.

The mission of Springdale General is to provide affordable, flexible space for our creative communities and The Notley Group and Caffe Medici are the perfect tenants to attract other like-minded businesses in the community, said Central Austin Management Group founder Daryl Kunik.

The Notley Group, which offers funding and support to businesses working toward positive change in the world, will base its new Center for Social Innovation at Springdale General.

The concept behind Springdale General aligns perfectly with what we are trying to achieve with the Center for Social Innovation, said Notley Group founder Dan Graham.

The first 40,000 square feet of space in the Springfield General development should be ready this fall. When fully complete early next, the entire project will span 165,000 square feet.

Mueller gets fit

Add Barre3 and Orangetheory Fitness to the ever-growing list of businesses bound for Austins Mueller development.

Theyll be in the same Aldrich Street building that houses Alamo Drafthouse.

Barre3 plans a May opening, while Orangetheory Fitness is aiming for a summer debut.

Ive had my eye on the Mueller community for some time now, said Emily Ballenger, owner of the Mueller Barre3. Ive watched it grow and Ive seen the number of people on the trails and in the parks who share my passion for health and wellness. Im teaching pop-up and community free classes before we open, and the response has been incredible. The residents and local businesses are so supportive, and everyone is really excited about our Aldrich Street studio. Im looking forward to welcoming the community to our space in the coming months.

The express lane

Randalls has started construction on a new grocery store and gas station in Georgetown. It will be in the soon-to-open Oak Meadows Marketplace shopping center at 5721 Williams Drive. Randalls said it expects to make its debut by years end. March openings at Domain Northside include Joie boutique, Lily Rain, Velvet Taco, Toulouse Caf & Bar and Hat Creek Burger Co. The Blue Starlite drive-in movie theater has relocated from East Austin to 12419 Lowden Lane in South Austin.

Chair King is shutting down its Central Austin store, located at 1201 Barbara Jordan Blvd. in the Mueller development. The furniture chains Lakeline and Lakeway stores will remain open. The Quiznos sub shop at 3637 Far West Blvd. in West Austin has closed. My Attic Self Storage, 1602 W.
