RPAI: ‘Irma was kind’

Hurricane Irma packed less of a wallop than originally feared, and shopping centers owners are breathing a sigh of relief.



Retail Properties of America reported that its six Florida properties emerged from the ordeal practically unscathed.



“The company's Florida team is safe and is working tirelessly to help the company's tenants reopen and serve the impacted areas. The Company's management team is optimistic that the balance of the portfolio that lies within Irma's northwest trajectory is well-situated to withstand the weakening storm,” read a statement issued by the company.



RPAI owns centers in Ft. Myers, Miami, Tampa, Lake Mary, Tallahassee, and Panama City.
