Worth Texas  GLA: 201,000 SF  Leased: 92% leased at time of closing  Opportunity: Newly-opened Whole Foods and below-market rents provide near-term NOI growth opportunity  Anchors: Whole Foods, Petco, Ace Hardware  Population: 80,000 (3-mile) 255,000 (5-mile)  3-Mile Average HH Income: $127,000 Summary “The Colleyville Downs acquisition is another example of our ability to source off-market opportunities and acquire first class real estate in our core markets,” said John Kite, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Many of the existing leases predate the new Whole Foods Market and further support our ability to create additional value through lease-up and below-market rent opportunities.”
