“The overall community has been designed as a suburban ‘lifestyle center.’ combining upscale apartment homes with a comprehensive retail component.” says Nick Hollenbeck, Director of Sales and Marketing for Sterling Properties.  “We wanted to create a cohesive destination where people can eat at a quaint restaurant or café, shop in boutique and find many modern conveniences.  Once our residents return home, there’s no need for an automobile because everything is close at hand.”

A select number of retail suites are still available in the second commercial building at The Shoppes at Sterling Parc.   The boutique spaces, which are ready for occupancy, range from 1,200 to 2,400 square feet.
