Ralphs at Market Lofts in Downtown Los Angeles Sells for $20.9 Million
Hanley Investment Group Real Estate Advisors and SRS Real Estate Partners have announced the $20.9 million sale of a 54,948-square-foot Ralphs-anchored ground-floor retail component at Market Lofts, a mixed-use condominium development in Downtown Los Angeles.
Hanley Investment Group senior vice president Lee Csenar and SRS Capital Markets executive vice president Carlos Lopez represented the seller, MDC Realty Advisors of Denver, Colorado, and the buyer, Mushmel Properties of Los Angeles.
'We generated multiple qualified offers from 1031 exchange investors, private family offices and institutional investors, ultimately selecting a private, all-cash buyer with whom we had previously transacted,' said Csenar. 'The buyer agreed to a 15-day due diligence period, giving the seller strong confidence in closing.'
Completed in 2007, Ralphs at Market Lofts is located at 645 W. 9th Street and was the first grocery store to open in Downtown Los Angeles since the 1950s. Developed by Lee Homes and CIM Group and designed by KTGY, the seven-story mixed-use community features six floors of residential lofts, totaling 267 units, built above ground-level retail and a subterranean parking garage. The retail component is anchored by a 49,489-square-foot Ralphs Fresh Fare grocery store, along with six additional tenants: The UPS Store, Supercuts, Simply Salads, Qwench Juice Bar, Honeymee and Momi Sushi.
'Ralphs has achieved high sales volumes at Market Lofts as the dominant grocer in Downtown Los Angeles,' Lopez said. 'The project's full occupancy and grocery-anchored tenancy, along with its long-term income stability, offer a secure investment opportunity in the heart of Downtown Los Angeles.'
Located at the signalized intersections of Flower and 9th Streets and Hope and 9th Streets, Ralphs at Market Lofts benefits from high visibility, strong pedestrian traffic and excellent accessibility. The tenant mix – including grocery, restaurant and service-oriented retailers – offers 100% internet-resistant uses. There is also limited grocer competition. (Target opened in 2010 and Whole Foods opened in 2015.)
It is adjacent to key Downtown Los Angeles destinations, including Crypto.com Arena, LA Live and the Los Angeles Convention Center. Within a one-mile radius, the property draws from a residential population of 85,000 with an average household income of $97,000. The daytime population reaches 200,000, and more than 1.2 million people live within five miles.
'Ralphs at Market Lofts represented a rare opportunity to acquire a fully leased asset anchored by a dominant grocer in the heart of one of the most dynamic urban centers in the country,' said Csenar.
Ralphs, a California grocery chain, has been serving communities since 1873, making it one of the oldest continuously operating grocery brands in the United States. Founded by George Albert Ralphs in Los Angeles, the company started as a small storefront and grew into a leading subsidiary of The Kroger Co., the nation's largest traditional grocery store operator. Ralphs operates 187 stores across California and remains a market share leader in the state's competitive grocery industry.

After less than 4 months, all-you-can-eat Jacksonville buffet abruptly closes
💻 Sign up for Dining Notes, the free weekly restaurant newsletter from the Times-Union's Gary Mills delivered to your email inbox each Wednesday. Sign up now. Less than four months after making its debut on Jacksonville's Northside, B Mac's Buffet has closed. The restaurant, at 900 Dunn Ave., Unit 10, in the Publix-anchored Highland Square shopping center, closed in recent days. A handwritten sign taped to a front window confirmed that the restaurant was permanently closed. The location was the third for the six-year-old Waycross, Ga.-based chain that brought its concept to Northeast Florida in October 2023 with the opening of a buffet in Callahan at 542225 U.S. 1. According to a state licensing database, the Callahan location, too, had closed.

Owner Johnathan McKinney, with 25 years of restaurant experience, told the Times-Union in February that he planned to open at least two more buffets in Florida and rapidly expand the concept. "In five years? I'd like to have 100 restaurants in Florida and beyond," he said at the time. Three other buffets are expected to open in Jacksonville in the coming months. All are planned for former Red Lobster restaurants that closed a year ago. They include: Mikata Buffet, 8720 Baymeadows Road Fushimi Grill & Modern Buffet, 13090 City Station Drive Gogi Korean BBQ, 416 Commerce Center Drive Teresa Stepzinski of the Times-Union contributed to this report.

2 Powerball tickets worth $1.3 million sold in California
ANAHEIM, Calif. - Feeling lucky? As the nation awaits the winner of the $207 million Powerball jackpot, two lottery players in California may be $1.3 million richer. What we know According to California Lottery's website on late Wednesday night, a pair of tickets worth $1,326,260 were sold in the state. One was sold at an ARCO gas station on North Street in Newman, California while a second ticket was sold at a Ralphs on West Chapman Avenue in Orange. This comes as a drawing was held for the then-jackpot of $189 million. Below were the winning numbers for the May 28 drawing – which apparently no one got all six numbers: 23, 27, 32, 35, 59. PB: 11 The drawing for the $207 million jackpot will be held on Saturday, May 31 at 8 p.m. PT. There are $207 millions of reasons to dream, especially what you would do with the jackpot money. However, one thing all lottery winners have to take into account is the fact that their prizes will be taxed. So how much do you really get after taxes? It depends on a couple of factors: do you have to pay state taxes where you live? Will you take the lump sum payment or the annuity payout? According to Mega Millions' website, those electing to take the annuity option get one immediate payment followed by 29 annual payments. Powerball follows an identical process for paying out its jackpot winners. RELATED: Powerball payout calculator: How much would you get after taxes if you won?
