Publix-Anchored Development in the Works in Gainesville

A new commercial development with a grocery store is underway in Gainesville.

The new shopping center, located at the intersection of Thompson Bridge and Price roads, is called Riverbrook Marketplace and will feature a Publix , according to construction plans.

The Publix store will be nearly 49,000 square feet and include a pharmacy drive-thru, with another one-story commercial building next to it that measures nearly 8,000 square feet, according to the documents.

The team behind “Building B” is listed as Benderson Development , one of the largest privately-held real estate companies in the country whose portfolio includes grocery stores, restaurants, hotels and more. Plans show room for several tenant spaces.

Building B is labeled as “retail/restaurant” space, but it’s not clear if the tenants for the space have been decided.

Fuqua Development , an Atlanta-based developer with projects across the Southeast, is listed as the team behind the Publix section of the building, according to construction plans. Fuqua Development’s portfolio includes The Battery Atlanta , the mixed-use destination adjacent to Truist Park. Publix is among several retail clients that Fuqua Development has.
