Halpern anticipates the first stores will open this fall. The asset is part of the larger, 48-acre mixed-use Belmont development, which includes medical offices, apartments and single-family homes.<\/p>\n<p>Located at the corner of Atlanta Road and Windy Hill Road in Smyrna, the project site is positioned a few miles west of the intersection of interstates 75 and 285, providing access to downtown Atlanta, 15 miles away. Cobb County\u2019s transportation system operates a bus route along the northern edge of the development.<\/p>\n<h2>Growth in an emerging area<\/h2>\n<p><em>\u201cSmyrna is one of metro Atlanta\u2019s hottest markets for residential infill, which is spurring growth in retail and new home development,\u201d<\/em> Steve West, vice president of acquisitions and development at Halpern Enterprises, told <em>Commercial Property Executive<\/em>. <em>\u201cMore than your typical live-work-play environment, Belmont responds to the needs of the community by including retail, residential, medical and an elementary school in one place. The second phase of The Shops at Belmont further increases the center\u2019s appeal by adding a fitness studio and an organic dining concept.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Two retailers, F45 Training and Real Subs Caf\u00e9 and Deli, have signed leases to occupy a respective 2,400 and 2,100 square feet in the new part of the development. The first part of the shopping center, which opened in 2016, is home to a number of tenants including Creatwood Tavern, Opa Greek Village and Sprint. Halpern\u2019s John Brozovic and Benjamin Halpern are marketing the remaining units in the second phase, as well as a vacant space in the first.<\/p>\n<p><em>Image courtesy of Halpern Enterprises<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The second phase of The Shops at Belmont will add more than 10,000 square feet to the property.
