Massachusetts trailer park to make way for shopping center

6/6/2017

The vacated Whispering Pines Mobile Home Park in North Attleboro, Massachusetts, will be filled with retail by a local developer building centers large and small along the Rhode Island border.



The still nameless project makes the fifth center that Johnston, Rhode Island-based Carpionato Group has under development in the area. They range in size from 53,000 sq. ft. of GLA at the Shoppes at Mayfaire in Attleboro to 830,000 sq. ft. at the Stonehill Marketplace power center in Johnston.



According to the Sun Chronicle in Attleboro, a mock-up of the site shared by Carpionato envisioned six retail buildings comprising at the trailer park site, one of them a large-scale fitness center. The company also stated its intent to start construction this summer looking toward a fall 2018 opening.



Carpionato purchased the 22-acre trailer park in 2015 for $2 million dollars. Massachusetts law requires that residents in mobile home parks be given two years notice to vacate the property.
