America's Best Contacts & Eyeglasses will soon join the tenant mix at Capitol Plaza in Ewing Township. The optical retailer – one of the country’s largest in its category – leased 3,600 square feet at the 355,000-square-foot Mercer County community shopping center.
Levin Management Corporation (LMC) serves as leasing and managing agent for Capitol Plaza, which is well-located at the intersection of heavily traveled Route 206/Princeton Avenue and N. Olden Avenue. Fred Younkin, LMC leasing representative, orchestrated the America’s Best lease on behalf of the landlord; David Dunkelman of Soloff Realty & Development represented the tenant.
“We are thrilled to welcome America’s Best Contacts & Eyeglasses to Capitol Plaza,” said Younkin. “This is a respected, nationally recognized brand and represents a new retail category for the property. We are pleased to add this high-quality vision care option for the community and another strong traffic driver for the shopping center.”
America’s Best Contacts & Eyeglasses combines both parts of the optical equation –eyewear and eye care – into one great experience at one low price, according to the company’s website. Headquartered in metro Atlanta, America’s Best currently has more than 900 stores in 31 states plus the District of Columbia, and is adding more stores each year.
