Monette Klein-O’Grady, co-founder of Prime Sites, the brokerage hired to find space for the store, said they’re looking for around 40,000 to 60,000 square feet.

“We are looking at Florida as a whole and where we have proven markets through the multitargeted areas where [Robb & Stucky] existed,” she said. “We are looking at everything: how centers might be rebranded because of an anchor of this caliber, freestanding buildings… We are capable of walking in and purchasing [a building], which is what we want to do when we can.” Robb & Stucky’s bankruptcy filing had little impact on the commercial real estate market in the area, The Real Deal previously reported.
