The next piece of Westchester Commons is in the works.
Plans have been filed with Chesterfield County for a new retail infill building at the Midlothian commercial development.
The 25,000-square-foot building would rise on a vacant pad at 109 Perimeter Drive, which is next to the shopping center’s Joann crafts store, according to county documents.
The building would appear to be intended for a single user, as the structure is labeled “anchor tenant” in the plans.
However, it’s unclear whether a user has already been tapped for the planned space. Matt Mittenthal of Greenberg Gibbons Commercial, the firm that manages the center, declined to comment for this article.
It’s also unclear when construction is expected to start or how much the project is anticipated to cost.
Westchester Commons is owned by the California State Teachers’ Retirement System (CalSTRS). It previously co-owned the center with Ohio-based Zaremba Group, the center’s developer, but bought out Zaremba’s stake in 2014.
The project architect for the new retail building is Freeman Morgan Architects, and the civil engineer is Timmons Group, according to the plans.

Westchester Commons currently has 650,000 square feet of retail space, according to a leasing flyer. Major tenants at the center include a Regal movie theater and Gold’s Gym. Target also has a store on the property that it owns. The center’s restaurant tenants include NAPA Kitchen and Wine, Rusty Taco and Latitude Seafood Co., among others.
The new commercial building isn’t the only infill project planned at Westchester Commons.
Lakeside-based StyleCraft Homes has started construction on new residential infill development at the center. The homebuilder is approved to build nearly 200 townhomes on multiple pads around the Gold’s Gym and Skipwith Academy.

From the looks of the plans, it looks like Marshall’s or another TJX owned store is in the works.
You don’t think it could be grocery?
What is the status on all the currently EMPTY store fronts? Why build more when you can use or reconfigure existing footage?
We often visit the Westchester shopping center for retail and dining needs. We’ve seen the ebb and flow of non-anchor occupants and I know what you mean. There’s quite a lot of retail space to the east of the Target which has inconsistent use including a seasonal Halloween store. There has even been a periodic weekend craft show to offer temporary occupancy of some otherwise empty square footage. To me, the hub of activity seems to otherwise focus around the Sedona/Rusty Taco area of Westchester where there’s also some medical practices, book store and other retail uses.
