Village at Oak Grove

VSI executed the development of a Publix anchored shopping center known as the Village at Oak Grove. The 67,587 square foot shopping center opened in 2023 in Athens, Clarke County, GA. 

Oak Grove is a master planned development that was conceived several decades ago. Through it’s various iterations and surviving the Great Financial Crisis, the project has evolved into the mixed use development it is today. The VSI team began working with John Mansour, the property owner, in 2020 to master plan the new commercial layout. VSI brought in an experienced apartment partner, Woodfield, to develop the multifamily component. The Team worked through the challenging zoning process within ACC, obtaining the Planned Development (PD) approvals needed to execute a mixed use, multi-phase development of this magnitude. In 2021 the project broke ground and the Publix anchored shopping center opened in April 2023. The materials, design elements and amenities have provided the community a best in class development that will set the precedent for future development in ACC. In 2022, VSI and Woodfield won a design award in ACCfor the design.

The merchandising mix and tenancy have provided a coveted shopping center, anchored by a top producing Publix.
