SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Arc Capital Partners (“Arc”), a Los Angeles-based real estate investment firm, in partnership with Milan Capital Management (“Milan”), is pleased to announce the acquisition of The Plant, a premier super-regional retail center located in a vibrant neighborhood in San Jose. This acquisition represents a significant strategic investment in one of Silicon Valley's most dynamic and diverse communities.
The Plant, encompassing 367,000 square feet of retail space, is a cornerstone of the East San Jose area, offering a robust mix of top-tier tenants including Best Buy, Ulta Beauty and Ross Dress for Less and is shadow-anchored by Target and Home Depot. The center is ideally situated in proximity to major Silicon Valley employers such as Adobe Systems, Cisco Systems, PayPal, and San Jose State University, providing unparalleled access to a vast and growing consumer base. With advanced pre-leasing discussions underway to backfill key vacancies, the center is well-positioned for sustained long-term growth.

The combination of a diverse tenant mix, prime location, and proximity to leading employers in the region positions The Plant for sustained success and continued growth.”
Chris Nichelson, President of Milan, added: “The Plant is an exceptional addition to our portfolio. Its strategic location in the heart of San Jose, coupled with a strong lineup of national retailers, makes it a vital retail destination for the surrounding community. We are eager to build upon the center’s existing strengths to attract best in class tenants who will revitalize the portions of the center that have been vacant for far too long.”
The San Jose submarket, known for its diversity and economic vitality, continues to attract residents and businesses alike, bolstered by the presence of major employers and access to key transportation corridors. The acquisition of The Plant underscores Arc’s and Milan’s commitment to investing in high-quality assets within dynamic urban markets.
