Red Parrot Asian Bistro has signed a lease for its second location, a space in the upcoming Shoppes at McHenry Row, a mixed-use development in South Baltimore.
According to Jared Meier, retail strategist with Streetsense, the restaurant is one of two locally owned eateries included in the development. The 4140 sq. ft. space is part of a $117 million project being constructed at the former Chesapeake Paperboard Co. site at the intersection of Key Highway and Fort St. in Locust Point.
"We're excited to have them coming in. The addition of the Sushi, Thai, and Asian cuisines is a nice complement," says Meier.
The site's 48,000 sq. ft. of main street retail space will include a Dunkin' Donuts, M&T Bank, PNC Bank, The Hair Cuttery, and The Green Turtle. It will also feature 80,000 square feet of office space, 250 rental apartments, and two parking garages.
"It'll be a mix of small shop boutiques, retail, and service users along with the restaurants," says Meier.
McHenry Row will also include a Harris Teeter grocery store. Meier expects the grocery store to help attract shoppers from around the area.
