A new group has been given the management contract for Mt. Berry Square Mall in Rome.

Urban Retail Properties, LLC, is an independent, privately owned company, that has acted as developer for more than 75 projects to date.

Mt. Berry Square Mall went on the auction block Tuesday, July 6th – however at the $6.7 million minimum – no bidders came forward at which point the property then reverted back to the lender – J.P. Morgan Chase – by default.

General management of the facility had previously been conducted by Jones Lang LaSalle.

Ross Glickman, the Chief Executive Officer of Urban Retail Properties – says his company brings a strong line-up of assets to the table and is now in the process of choosing the best long-term strategy for the mall.
