Plaza East Shopping Center

Plaza East Shopping Center is a retail strip center at 5440 Atlanta Highway in Montgomery, AL. Its 73,460 SF of gross leasable area and 10,000 SF of available GLA give retailers and service businesses room to establish a presence on a major thoroughfare.

The center offers space starting at 3,000 SF, with 10,000 SF identified as the maximum contiguous area. Suite 3 and Suite 4 each have 3,000 SF available; Suite 5 has 4,000 SF available. A lighted entrance and exit support customer access, while surface parking serves employees and shoppers. The 8.87-acre property was built in 1977 and carries B-3: Highway Commercial zoning. These features suit an occupier focused on straightforward access and a retail setting shared with other businesses.

Plaza East sits near the established Carol Villa, Eastmont, Bellehurst and Johnstown neighborhoods. Faulkner University is approximately 0.2 miles away, I-85 is approximately 0.5 miles away, and Auburn University at Montgomery is approximately 2.5 miles away. The center’s position on Atlanta Highway gives a service or specialty retailer a location customers can reach from surrounding neighborhoods and the interstate. The 41,380 AADT traffic count adds another measure of the exposure associated with this location.

The asking rent is $9/SF/year on an NNN basis, with negotiable lease terms. The overall rate is negotiable; Suite 3’s rate is also identified as negotiable. Occupiers can weigh the individual suite sizes against the larger contiguous-space option when planning their storefront and customer-facing operations. For a tenant-rep broker, the combination of a defined asking rate, surface parking and lighted access makes Plaza East a practical leasing conversation.
