Hobby Lobby, Brass Tap Beer Bar, Moe’s Grill and 500 Jobs: Island Walk Is 84% Full

July 23, 2015 | FlaglerLive | 70 Comments

Coming along. (Branch Properties)

The developers of Island Walk, the once and future shopping center previously known as Palm Harbor in the heart of Palm Coast, have secured long-term leases with enough retailers to fill 84 percent of its space when it begins opening in phases in 2016.


When the center is operating at near capacity, it will employ some 500 people, the project developer said Thursday. It is currently employing 100 for the construction phase. Those jobs will give way to retail jobs.

The tenants are a mixture of previous retailers during the Palm Harbor days and new retailers that Atlanta-based properties has negotiated leases with. The new shops will include Petco, Tuesday Morning, Hobby Lobby, Leslie’s Pool Supply, Great Clips and Chase Bank. New casual dining venues will include Moe’s Southwest Grill, The Brass Tap Craft Beer Bar, which specializes in the booming fad for craft beers, Jacksonville’s Metro Diner, which has expanded to six locations so far in Florida, Anthony’s Brick Oven Pizza, and of course that old standard without which Palm Coast has not been the same: Thai by Thai, one of the best Thai restaurants this side of Chiang Mai.

Thai by Thai is among the nearly dozen shops that will be returning to Island Walk after their exile from Palm Harbor during construction. It’s not a large number of returning shops, but then Palm Harbor had been hemorrhaging businesses for years, when it was under the management of Oakbrook, Ill.-based Inland Real Estate Group, a five-year ownership that left many shop owners dissatisfied with the direction of the place. It had showed. At one point the year before renovations began., there were more empty storefronts than active ones there.

Some of Palm Harbor’s old tenants opted to move permanently to other locations. Those that will continue operations without the forest of red arrows and fences include Starbucks, The UPS Store, Eyeglass Express, Coast Dental and Orthodontics, Aimee’s Hallmark Shop, Wild Rice China Express, Palm Nails and Salsa’s, the indispensable Mexican restaurant at the edge of the center that will actually be relocating to an adjoining and larger 4,700-square-foot space with a larger patio later this year.

The old Publix, the first grocery store in Palm Coast, never closed, and will be moving to its larger, 54,000 square foot venue (a fifth larger than its adjacent current one), in a seamless transition in November. Publix will account for a quarter of the 204,000 square-foot Island Walk.

“Island Walk’s high-traffic location along a popular corridor along with the strength of the surrounding
demographics made it a no-brainer for many tenants to not only join the center but also remain through the redevelopment,” Nick Telesca, president of Branch Properties, said in a statement issued Thursday. (Branch and Florida-based Michael Collard Properties acquired the center in May 2014 for $12.4 million. The property yielded $128,000 in property taxes in 2014.)

The center’s 84 percent occupancy before opening most of its storefronts is a substantial achievement that points to retail’s confidence in the city. “Based on our most recent market studies, the average occupancy at retail centers in the trade area is 90%. With Island Walk still under construction, we feel good about 84% especially given the leasing activity underway,” Telesca said in response to written questions today.

But don’t look for Trader Joe’s any time soon–or ever–at Island Walk: Publix considers it a direct competitor. Telesca was asked what other potential retailers might be coming–and was specifically asked whether a bookstore will be lured there. “We do not discuss tenants or potential uses until leases are signed,” he said. “We are in active negotiations with several national, regional and local tenants.”

The stores will be opening in phases, so there isn’t specific a target date of completion.

“Our job is not done. We are still seeking retailers and restaurants to round out the current tenant line-up at Island Walk,” Nancy Sumner, a leasing advisor with the Shopping Center Group, said. The group is the leasing agent for Island Walk. “The fundamentals that made this center a success many decades ago still exist today. Island Walk’s longevity is proven by the overwhelming response from potential and existing tenants to our leasing strategy and the opportunity that exists to revitalize this area.”

      Also sorely missed are the sour older men with guns in their fanny packs, and sleeveless tees
      showing once-muscled arms and pecs not needing “manzierres.”
      But the real heartbreak in me, lies within the loss of the much-loved traffic cameras.

    the former center was a dying ,decaying embarrasment for Palm Coast. The new Island Walk or whatever its name will be(legal issue on name), makes a MAJOR improvement to the local retail sector. Be happy people, Palm Coast is still a baby type, evolving city, with distinct demographics (thank God its becoming youinger with people raising families).. If you want a Trader Joe’s, a Costco, or an upscale , national restaurant chain(Ruth’s Chris e.g.), wait awhile , like when Palm Coast is about Twice its current population. The Northeast section of Palm Coast is now regaining its Vitality, with this project, the Widening of PCPkwy, the Matanzas Interchange, OLd Kings Road & Palm Harbor Pkwy extensionsand Holland Park renovations. Be Happy, Palm Coast is urban renewing and the old ITT legacy is fading Off into the Sunset !

    It seems to me that these type stores are already here in Palm Coast. Not to mention available unoccupied retail space in a few different shopping centers that could of been rented. Why would I go to Hobby Lobby when there is a Michaels already here on 100? These stores are going to be out of businesse within a year. Then what are we going to have another vacant strip mall .

    The article says there won’t be a Trader Joe’s because Publix considers it a competition? Since when does Publix decide who moves into a shopping center?

    It doesn’t matter whether Trader Joes goes in there or not, it’s the principal of the the thing. I just wish we had more clothing, furniture, discount dept stores like Marshalls, etc .PC has lots of pizza, eating places, bars and mattresses. I guess it’s eat, drink, and sleep.

      Actually TULIP, when companies sign contracts to lease space in a shopping center, they have the capability of making sure there is wording that states not certain competitors are allowed to lease. It’s kind of common sense.

    Almost all tenants sign a lease for an exclusive deal. I am sure Thai by Thai has a lease provision that says no other Thai restaurants can be in the plaza. The same as a UPS store likely has an exclusive on shipping stores. And so on and so on. So you can bet for certain that a major player like Publix has an exclusive on “groceries”.

    Publix wouldn’t go into a plaza that would allow another grocery store. And a major lessor would be foolish not to give Publix what it wants to get a major anchor tenant.

    What happened to the covered walkway between the stores? No need to shop here. I’d rather go more upscale and out of town for some serious shopping that trudge between stores without any shade. At least the quality of those stores is worth my while. Hopefully they will put up some awnings.

    @DWFerg – the center was strangled by the owners – got everybody to leave without getting into leasing wars. So it became an eyesore on purpose. Otherwise, the design was a lot more pedestrian friendly than what I’m seeing in the picture. I feel sorry for the older people who live in Arbor Trace. They’re going to find this strip mall is more difficult to navigate than what they had.

Honestly, I wonder why I moved here sometimes…and to this town no less…Well I’d like to chat more but I’m driving and FiFi is on my lap…She can be such a distraction sometimes while we’re driving but no worries….what can happen right? lol.

    Due to the closing of the Matanzas Woods Pkwy bridge over 95, hard to get there for us anyway. But, will make the effort for the new Publix and Moe’s. Speaking of that new interchange at 95 and Matanzas Woods Pkwy, the Pkwy will not be widened, the interchange is the same distance from the development area at US 1 and I95 and US 1 is a 4 lane highway. It just does not make sense to have put in that interchange.

    I would like to encourage all the readers here to consider supporting locally owned businesses who invest their own money and sweat into their little efforts. And keep you money here in our community instead of supporting any of these Wall Street backed corporation whores who just siphon money out of our town and send it to New York.. And screw the out of town speculating real estate whores who are here to carpetbag us too for not offering some kind of breaks to local business people but instead put a full court press to stock the place with national chains, except for a few small local restaurants

    And that concludes my Sunday morning sermon..

      Yes so lets not support the locals who become employed by these conglomerates. We may not like it as the mom and pop type businesses fade into the sunset due to these bigger businesses, it is what it is and not shopping at these places would hurt locals employed there. There have been arguments that no jobs are here and now there’s argument to not shop where jobs are coming…albeit maybe not the greatest of paying jobs but people who’ve been unemployed will have an opportunity to re-enter the work force. I also strongly encourage supporting local owned business.

It’s a good thing for the city to be doing this, in my honest opinion, the location seems a bit of an odd choice but I don’t have a say. 500 jobs is 500 jobs and that’s going to help these of-age kids and old folks looking for part time work. Now, maybe can we start tackling the larger elephant in the room, the fact we don’t have INDUSTRY or large Employers offering a decent wage in the area. Why Palm Coast isn’t offering incentives to companies to bring jobs here just makes me cringe.

    Better yet, why can’t we get a COSTCO in Palm Coast?? Sam’s Club is way down in Daytona and is dark and unorganized and not a very pleasing place to shop in!!!

    Why not a :
    Home Goods
    Bed Bath and Beyond
    Sweet Tomatoes
    Costco or SAMs
    Trader Joes

    And why another craft store?????? Is that the best Palm Coast can do???
    And so if there is a Publix, there is no reason why a specialty food store cannot go there, how many Publix do we need??? It’s like another McDonalds.
    And while we’re on the subject of shopping
    I’m tired of going out of the area.
    What happened to Walmart???? I go to Ormond. Much cleaner store and better parking.
    The town center is a disgrace to this ” city” it’s only use is a cut thru to get to one end of the ” city” to another.
    And as far as the Target Plaza—– poor confusing parking, no lighting at night. There are stores that do not have lit signs. You wouldn’t even know they are there.
    Too scary at night.
    Palm Coast has a lot to learn.

    Has anyone been to the Pavillion in Port Orange? I know the responses will be “go there”. I do…. It’s a much nicer shopping and eating experience and a lovely day…

    I really love the new Island Walk. Love my new Publix. Love the Metro Diner. I am new to Palm Coast. I would enjoy more shopping. I feel like that will come. The most attractive thing about the area is the parks and beaches. It really is beautiful here. I feel it is safe. Love laid back atmosphere of Flagler Beach. Love the little mom & pop restaurants on the beach. Nice movie theater. I believe that Town Center will develop nice shopping like people mention here. St Augustine is close by too. My sister loves to shop here from Orlando as it is too crowded there. Be careful what you wish for folks!

    If any of you like shopping at SAMs or Costco, you can order online and get delivery. Especially good if you use same items regularly.

    They’really not going to put a Sam’s club in the same plaza as a Publix, although it would be nice to have one a little closer.

    I like to see growth, however I miss Palm Coast being the place that was too far for many to want to move to, but close enough that those of us that did live here, didn’t mind the short 20 minute drive North or South, so long as we had our quiet little hideaway in between St. Auggie and Daytona, to come home to, with minimal traffic and almost non-existent daily crime. Maybe the occasional, escaped monkey in the R section (true story around 2011), bear or FL. Panther sighting. Now, it takes like 20 minutes, just to get to I95 or US 1, with all the traffic! Kinda bums me out even more just writing this. :*(
