In October, Fenton welcomed Compass as its first office tenant. Compass, a real estate technology firm, is occupying approximately 8,200 square feet in the first building at the corner of Trinity Road and Fenton Gateway Drive. In November, Truist Bank, Fenton’s first financial institution, opened. Three new retailers, Archer Paper Goods, Madewell, and Vestique, also opened this quarter. The development now includes 20 retail tenants, 7 restaurants, 1 office tenant, and the movie theater.
For the holiday season, Fenton unveiled a large display of holiday decorations along with some opportunities for recreation and entertainment. Sculpted reindeer and large ornaments decorated the entrances and main street, while a 40-foot lighted tree and a “Santa snow globe” with picture opportunities added to the holiday cheer.
Fenton also opened a temporary ice rink in the central gathering space in front of the theater. The rink exceeded expectations with more than 30,000 tickets sold during the month of December.
Peering ahead, construction continues on the 357-unit Allison at Fenton Apartments, which will open in seven phases. Model units are now available for viewing, and the first units are expected to be available for occupancy in January 2023.
