Publix Super Markets Inc. is building a store in the new Plaza at Normandy retail center at northwest Normandy Boulevard and Chaffee Road in West Jacksonville .
The city issued permits July 18 for Atlanta-based Benning Construction Co. to build the 47,240-square-foot Publix at a project cost of $3.5 million and a 9,800-square-foot retail shell building for tenants at $901,600.
The Plaza at Normandy is at 11341 Normandy Blvd. The land is near Cecil Commerce Center and the First Coast Expressway.
Wagner Property Group bought 19.4 acres in West Jacksonville on Feb. 23, 2022, to develop the Publix-anchored shopping center.
The Franklin Street real estate firm represents the retail space for lease and the two outparcels for ground lease or build-to-suit. Franklin Street Senior Vice President Carrie Smith, Director Ricky Ostrofsky and associate Kaelyn Sreenan represent the property.
The 58,691-square-foot retail project comprises the Publix grocery store and an adjacent 2,100-square-foot liquor store; and 9,800 square feet of retail shops next door.
The leasing brochure shows one tenant space remains of 1,400 square feet. Tenants listed are Encore Nails, AT&T, a UPS Store and Xtreme Wings.
There also are the two outparcels of 2.05 acres, where a lease is pending for a gas station and convenience store, and 1.46 acres for a fast-food tenant.
Through WPG-Normandy LLC, Tampa-based Wagner Property Group bought the land for $4.9 million from W.T. and L.L. Investments and L. Ward Huntley, as trustee of the Huntley-Jiffy Asset Liquidation Trust of Orange Park.
Valley National Bank of Clearwater financed the deal at $16.8 million.
