United Properties and Jerry’s Enterprises, Inc., announced Sept. 16 that they received approval from the City of Woodbury, Minn., to develop Bielenberg Gardens, a 90,000-square-foot retail project.
Bielenberg Gardens will be anchored by a 68,000-square-foot grocery store, operated by Jerry’s Enterprises, along with a 12,300-square-foot multi-tenant retail building and several retail outlots for sale/lease. The retail strip center and outlots will include retail shops, restaurants, a convenience store, bank and gas station.
Located at the southwest corner of Radio Drive and Bailey Road, construction will begin on the 30-acre site in October of 2013. Once initial site work is complete, construction of the grocer and retail building will begin in spring of 2014 and be completed by fall of 2014.
Designed with walkability in mind, Bielenberg Gardens will include the new Hargis Parkway, sidewalk connections, new trails along Bailey Road and Radio Drive, trail benches within the site and perennial gardens. The site will be connected to the Bielenberg Sports Complex by a tunnel under Radio Drive, which further extends the pedestrian tunnel system in the area. Another key component of United Properties’ development is a central stormwater retention pond, which will be connected to a water reuse system to irrigate Bielenberg Gardens and the adjacent properties.
