Rancho Cucamonga, CA – October 26, 2016 – Progressive Real Estate Partners announced today that it has completed a 5-year lease with Inland Empire Health Plan (IEHP) for a 7,550 square-foot retail space at 3590 Tyler Street in Riverside, California. The prime location is surrounded by over 1.3 million square-feet of retail.

Progressive Real Estate Partners retail expert Pablo Velasco exclusively marketed the property and represented the lessor and Thomas Pierik of Lee and Associates in Riverside represented IEHP.
Built in 1995, the property is ideally situated on Riverside’s main retail corridor and easily accessible from both the high traffic Tyler St. and the busy 91 Freeway with a combined average daily traffic count of over 215,800 cars. Additional neighboring retailers include Target, Kohl’s Bed Bath & Beyond and Big Lots as well as several fast food and sit down restaurants.

“The superb regional location, excellent co-tenancy and strong demographics made this an ideal location for IEHP to expand their services” according to Pablo Velasco, VP of Leasing and Sales Division at Progressive Real Estate Partners. “Health related tenants like IEHP are increasingly choosing to locate in retail centers because they recognize the value of having a more prominent and accessible location and customers appreciate the convenience.
