Bookview Town Center Welcomes Vonn Jones Salon

We’re excited about the newest retail shop to open up in the mixed-use development known as Brookview Town Centre. Vonn Jones Salon features a bright, airy design, and joins neighbors including Rosati’s Pizza, The Casual Pint, Sport Clips, and Five Guys in serving the Bearden community. Brookview Town Centre was designed for people to shop, eat, and work in the middle of a vibrant and stylish metropolitan environment, and its newest retail addition is helping it do just that. If you’re in the area, we hope you’ll come by and check it out.

Are you looking for retail space that attracts clientele from a 200,000 square foot office building and hotel with some of the highest occupancy rates in Knoxville? Retail space is currently available in the development that offers a large outdoor patio space and high visibility from Northshore Dr, which sees 35,000 cars per day. Contact the listing agent to find out more.

Are Your Office Needs Changing? Here’s How to Stay Ahead

The effects of COVID-19 have led many businesses to reconsider their office space needs. One trend is clear: many companies are moving away from the Central Business District and into the suburbs. Another emerging industry trend is not so straight-forward. Some companies are considering downsizing in anticipation of a permanent shift toward more employees telecommuting. Others are contemplating more space, as shared workspaces and cramped cubicles may no longer be an efficient way to keep employees safe.

For those employees expected to remain in the office, it will be more important than ever to provide an appealing workspace to improve company loyalty and minimize frustration among peers that are able to work from home. According to an article published by the Harvard Business Review in 2019, the majority of employees surveyed (58%) said that fresh, allergen-free air would improve their wellness. Another 50% said they would work and feel better with some view of the outdoors.

If your company is lacking the amenities that would help it stand out, Blue Ridge Realty has office space available now for direct lease and sublease ranging in size from 7,000 to 12,000 SF at our prestigious suburban Lakeside Centre office complex. Three Lakeside Centre provides plenty of opportunities for “fresh air” breaks with a covered outdoor patio, a lakefront waterfall and walking trail on the property, and walking distance to many Northshore shops and restaurants.

Contact us today to schedule a showing at 865-470-4868.

Brookview Retail Building Sells in the Midst of Pandemic

Despite the ongoing global pandemic and the declining sales volume in the retail sector of the commercial real estate industry nationwide, Blue Ridge Realty has completed the sale of Brookview Market A, part of its Brookview Town Centre. The building was finished in 2010 and is part of a mixed-use project that includes retail, offices, and a hotel.

Brookview Market A is in the Papermill area off N Northshore Drive. It comprises 12,667 SF and houses restaurants including Five Guys Burgers & Fries, The Casual Pint, and Rosati’s Pizza. Other establishments include Casa Blanca Nail Bar, Sports Clips, and the newest tenant, Vonn Jones Hair Salon, which is currently under construction.

Brookview Market A sold to OTN Retail Centre Three, a California-based owner with a local presence who will also take over property management of the building.

If you or your company is looking for suburban office space convenient to shops and restaurants with natural amenities, contact Blue Ridge Realty to see how we can help at 865-470-4868 or email.

Finding Good Advisors

When you need a good advisor, this is where our experience and expertise come into the picture! Find a good commercial real estate agent who knows the local market, including unlisted properties. An agent is critical in negotiations with vendors and we take pride in being advocates for our clients. If you’re in Knoxville or the surrounding area, we’d love to talk to you about your commercial real estate needs.

Next, you’ll want to ask your agent to research market values for the kind of space and location you want. Make sure those values align with your budget to ensure that your expectations are realistic and you’re properly informed to talk to vendors.

Often a company’s needs do not go hand in hand with its budget. You may have to pay more than you’re expecting to get what you need. However, knowing how much your budget can stretch is important to keep your business from overreaching.

A good lawyer can also be beneficial in negotiating a purchase. We recommend going with a lawyer that deals with commercial real estate transactions on a daily basis. If you’re working with us, we have several we’d be happy to recommend.
