The new Smith’s Marketplace on Trinity Drive will be open to the public in July, just one short year after the groundbreaking in July 2013. The store itself will be unique in New Mexico – the first “Marketplace”, which carries general merchandise, electronics, clothing, toys and many other items along with groceries.
In addition to the Marketplace, retail pads ranging in size from a minimum of 1,200 square feet to 43,000 square feet are either being constructed or in the planning stages.
Collier’s is the leasing agent for the additional retail spaces. Vice presidents Tom Jones and Bob Feinberg are currently in negotiation with several potential occupants, which include both local and out-of-town or franchise-type operations.
