The seller of the Chicopee property was UE Chicopee Holding LLC. The purchasing entity is R.K. Chicopee, LLC. Brokers for the transaction were Nat Heald, Executive VP, and Chris Angelone, Managing Director, of Jones Lang LaSalle / N. E. Capital Markets.

RK now includes in its portfolio five properties anchored by Walmart stores. In addition to the new Saugus and Chicopee locations, the 387,000 SF RK Worcester Crossing; the 160,000 SF RK North Reading Plaza,  and the 275,000 SF RK Newport Towne Center in Newport, RI.

Our investment formula focuses on open-air, well-situated, heavy traffic locations with good demographics – and respected credit tenants.” Fries attributes the firm’s track record of over 35 years to its founder’s guiding principles:  minimal debt and close working relationships with tenants, customers, and local and regional vendors.
