Shopoff Acquires Bay Area Former Nordstrom Building Located At Stoneridge Mall Totaling 8.37 Acres

PLEASANTON, Calif., March 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Shopoff Realty Investments, Praelium Commercial Real Estate, and an affiliate of Singerman Real Estate announced today that the joint venture has acquired the former Nordstrom building located at the Stoneridge Mall in Pleasanton, California. The property totals 8.37 acres including the former department store’s parking lot.

“This asset represents an opportunity to acquire a significant piece of property in a highly desirable market in Northern California,” explained Shopoff President and CEO William Shopoff. “Our fourth mall purchase in recent years, we are looking forward to working with the city to repurpose this property and deliver much needed new housing and other uses for the community.”

Pleasanton is a suburban city outside of San Francisco, and the site is transit-oriented and within walking distance to the West Dublin Bart Transit Station, Workday Headquarters, Kaiser Permanente, and employment centers with over 2 million square feet of office space in the area. Pleasanton is also one of the top 10 school districts in California, making it an attractive community for families.

In an effort to meet the state mandated housing requirements, the city of Pleasanton adopted their 2023-31 Housing Element Plan in January 2023 which identifies sites available for redevelopment, including the Stoneridge Mall. Shopoff is exploring a variety of uses for the former retail space, including new housing, office and mixed-use retail.

Joseph Hanen, Praelium’s chief investment officer, added, “We are thrilled to announce the successful acquisition of another investment in partnership with Shopoff Realty Investments and Singerman Real Estate. At Praelium, we are confident in our ability to navigate the ever-changing real estate market, and we remain committed to finding new and exciting investment opportunities for our partners and investors.”
