Coro Realty Advisors and Easlan Capital will Welcome Primrose and Pure to Brookleigh Marketplace

ATLANTA – April 8, 2014 - Coro Realty Advisors and Easlan Capital have announced the planned addition of Primrose Schools and PURE taqueria® to Brookleigh Marketplace, Coro and Easlan’s 40,000 square foot retail development at Johnsons Ferry Road near Ashford Dunwoody Road.

Primrose Schools plans to build a 12,000 square foot, two-story school.  It will feature 11 classrooms serving children from six weeks to five years old, which blends teacher-guided and child-initiated activities with a special emphasis on character development.  It plans to open in the last quarter of 2014.  At full occupancy, Primrose expects enrollment by approximately 206 students from 145 families.  Primrose, which was founded in Marietta in 1982, has over 275 locations nationwide.  “As current parents of the Primrose School of Midtown, we saw first-hand the impact that high quality childhood education is having on our children, who inspired us to share our experience,” says Primrose School of Brookhaven Franchise Owners Jarrad and Olivia Vaughn. “In talking with several neighbors, we discovered there was a need in the Brookhaven area for consistent, high quality educational childcare, and the mix of apartments, townhomes, single-family homes and retail make Brookleigh Marketplace an ideal location for our Primrose school.”

PURE taqueria® intends to build a 3,500 square foot restaurant with a design modeled on a 1950’s era Pure Fuel Oil station.  It will serve lunch, dinner, brunch, and PURE’s signature margaritas.  The building will feature indoor and outdoor seating and a rooftop patio and bar popularized at its Roswell and Woodstock PURE locations.  This will be the sixth PURE location in Atlanta and its second inside the Perimeter.  “We are looking forward to being a big part of the Brookhaven community,” says Brett Harper, General Manager of PURE Alpharetta.  Harper, a current resident of the Brookhaven, will be the General Manager of the new PURE.  “We have a lot of work to do, but we are excited and already sense great support from the community.”

Robert Fransen, Partner of Coro, noted, "When Easlan and Coro began working on Brookleigh Marketplace, we envisioned it as neighborhood retail.  We hoped to provide a combination of retail uses that would both tie seamlessly into the neighborhood and also add to its appeal.  We are excited to be able to fulfill those goals.  Primrose’s stellar reputation, high quality architecture and focus on local families will fit wonderfully with the surrounding area.  Simultaneously, PURE’s innovative design, fun atmosphere and great food should create an extremely popular neighborhood watering hole.”

Both Primrose and PURE expect to break ground within the next few months.
