NORTH BRUNSWICK, NJ — Two new tenants are coming to Brunswick Shopping Center in North Brunswick. The latest additions include halal smokehouse Kanoon restaurant (3,250 s/f) and tax preparer H&R Block (1,500 s/f).
Levin Management Corporation (LMC) serves as leasing and managing agent for the 288,000 s/f property, located just off Rte. 1 on Milltown Rd. LMC’s Vanessa Fernandez-Kelty, senior leasing representative, and Fred Younkin, leasing representative, negotiated the transactions on behalf of property ownership; Ryan Feldman of Alliance Retail Development represented H&R Block.
“Many of our current patrons come from Central NJ, making Brunswick Shopping Center the perfect choice for Kanoon’s growth,” said Bhuri. “Guests can expect the same delicious, high-quality food, warm hospitality and great experience that has made our Clifton restaurant so popular.
Restaurants remain among the most active sectors in retail leasing today and contribute significantly to a shopping center’s appeal, noted Younkin. “Kanoon already has a loyal following, and the concept is a terrific fit for the property and neighborhood,” he said. “We are pleased to have accommodated their space needs at Brunswick Shopping Center, and are confident Kanoon’s presence will diversify the local dining scene and be a terrific draw for local restaurant goers.”
Blending digital innovation with human expertise, H&R Block provides clients with tax preparation services, financial products and small-business solutions. “H&R Block complements the center’s existing service-oriented tenants and undoubtedly will be a valuable amenity for many consumers,” added Fernandez-Kelty.
Brunswick Shopping Center sits in the heart of North Brunswick’s retail corridor. The retail destination draws 1.5 million visitors per year, according to real-time traffic data from Placer.ai.
Anchored by a Lidl supermarket, the property’s tenant mix includes a newly renovated LA Fitness, Dollar Tree, McDonald’s, Sherwin Williams, Sally Beauty, Community Dental, Rita’s Italian Ice & Frozen Custard, Roma Unisex Salon, Rainbow Apparel, Alex Diamond Joyeria and Magyar Bank, among others.
