Nashville adaptive-reuse, mixed-use project lands new owner
JLL Capital Markets led sales efforts for Stocking 51, a five-building property in The Nations neighborhood of Nashville, Tennessee
ATLANTA, May 9, 2022 – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has closed the sale of Stocking 51, a five-building, adaptive-reuse mixed-use project totaling 124,315 square feet of creative office and retail space in Nashville, Tennessee.
JLL represented the seller, Vintage South Development and procured the buyer, an institutional investor advised by Stockbridge.
Stocking 51 consists of five buildings located on a 6.17-acre site at 5026, 5016, 4900 and 4840 Centennial Blvd. and 1410 51st Ave. North in The Nations neighborhood of Nashville, which is accessible to Greater Nashville and affluent executive housing via Interstate 40. The Nations has witnessed tremendous growth recently with average household incomes, average home prices and education levels increasing.
Originally built in 1927 as the Belle Meade Hosiery Mill, 5026 Centennial served as the inspiration for the adaptive reuse project, which now is a thriving, curated mixed-use environment satisfying daily amenity needs of tenants from coffee to lunch to fitness. Stocking 51 comprises roughly 63% creative office space and 37% retail. At 100% occupied, tenants include companies spanning the coworking, technology, financial services, interior design, fitness and restaurant industries.
The seller was represented by Senior Managing Directors Richard Reid and Ryan Clutter and Managing Director Huston Green of JLL Capital Markets along with Trent Yates of Sagemont Real Estate.
“Nashville is the nation’s leading economy seeing more than 80 people per day moving to the city and approximately 23,000 jobs created annually,” Reid said. “This is creating incredible demand for creative office space with rents increasing more than 18% in the last three years.”
