“There has been a great influx of residential units in Wellington with very little variety in existing restaurants,” said Roxanne Register, Senior Vice President, Katz & Associates. “It has been our pleasure to create this great enclave of restaurants and retail to create a sense of community for the Village of Wellington. We have user-friendly walkways throughout the project and a great deal of parking in our three-story garage and over 540 surface parking spaces.”
“We are very pleased about how quickly we were able to lease up Lotis Wellington I due to its great location, our knowledge of new development, and quality tenants in the market, and we are looking forward to securing retailers for Lotis II,” said Nicole Fontaine, Vice President, Katz & Associates.
