Sunrise MarketPlace has moved its business office out of Sunrise Mall after the building’s HVAC stopped working, according to Executive Director Kathilynn Carpenter.
Carpenter said there were no other spaces that could accommodate their offices without significant tenant improvements.
The owner of Greenfaire Village, InterCal Real Estate, offered Sunrise MarketPlace a vacant space and offered to pay for significant tenant improvements, Carpenter said.
“We liked being in the mall, we just couldn’t find a space we could afford,” Carpenter said. “We also thought it would help this center that is under-utilized right now.”
Their new offices are at Greenfaire Village on the northwest corner of Greenback Lane and Fair Oaks Boulevard. Sunrise Marketplace will share the center with Sacramento Black Rifle and Tague Music. A new veterinarian is slated to open in December, Carpenter said.
Sunrise Marketplace is the governing body for the area’s Property-based Business Improvement District, or PBID. The district represents over 350 businesses in the Sunrise-Greenback commercial district. It was formed in 1999 and plays a supportive and marketing role for businesses, along with hosting events and providing funding for a dedicated patrol officer to increase security in the district.
