“The decision to redevelop Huntington Shopping Center has proven successful in attracting premier national brands to expand into this market,” said Chris Fleming, VP of Asset Management at Federal Realty. “By introducing big names such as Williams Sonoma and J.

The 21-acre community shopping center sits adjacent to Walt Whitman Mall on Route 110 in the heart of Huntington’s main retail corridor. In addition to the newly opened retailers, former tenants including PetSmart, ULTA, Tilly’s, Michaels, Vision Works, and Verizon are all currently open and operating.
