Freedom Crossing at Fort Bliss slated to break ground July 11, 2009

(For Immediate Release)

DENVER-May 2008 – June 10, 2009 – David, Hicks & Lampert Brokerage has been selected to Market and Lease the new Freedom Crossing at Fort Bliss anchored open air shopping center to open Summer 2010. The official groundbreaking ceremony will be July 11, 2009.

Developed by ServiceStar Development (Denver, CO) in conjunction with the Army & Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES), Freedom Crossing at Fort Bliss is the first open air of its type to be opened on a military Post.  Centrally located, this will serve as the heart of this military community providing a shopping and entertainment venue with the latest in popular retail offerings by many national and regional retailers, the most modern multi-screen theater and trendy restaurants.  Freedom Crossing will also serve as convenient backdrop for many scheduled outdoor promotional events by virtue of its upscale architectural persona completed by its wide streets and outdoor meeting areas.   The shopping center is anchored by an expanded Post Exchange (217,420 sf) and Commissary (111,180 sf), which, based off of current sales, are expected to generate in the excess of $200 Million dollars in annual sales. 

Fort Bliss is experiencing unprecedented growth.  The Post population is on track to grow by nearly 70% over the next four years.  This is due to a national military realignment and congressional approval of five new Brigades to be added to the present Post population.  The federal government has already broken ground on over $4 Billion dollars in fully funded construction projects at Fort Bliss in preparation for the population increase.  One of the new Brigades is already open with the remaining four Brigades to open one-per-year through 2012.  The result of the new personnel is an increase from the current 88,000 customers to a massive 136,000 customers.

For leasing information on this exciting new shopping center please contact: Steve Yeager, Allen Lampert or Phil Hicks at 303.694.6082 or visit the David, Hicks and Lampert Brokerage website at www.dhlb.com.
