The Hexum Companies: Rochester Retail Property
The Hexum Companies feature property is Shoppes on Maine, positioned three miles south of the CBD and six miles north of Rochester International Airport and Interstate 90 on Highway 63, between the recently completed freeway interchanges at 40th Street SW and 48th Street SW.
Community and site characteristics of this master-planned 500 acre mixed-use development demonstrate the appeal of this particular retail destination:
- 86% of the 1.8 million annual visitors to Mayo Clinic pass this site at least twice during their stay
- The site has the highest average household income in Olmsted County within a 10 minute drive ($88,358 avg. household income)
- Incredibly friendly access with six lanes serving 48th street, plus multiple turn lanes
Unique lighting and architectural features complement the development with walking paths, benches, ponds, and waterfalls. The natural topography of the site rises towards the east and south, allowing virtually every site within the development to have freeway visibility.
Planned as a 740,000 square foot retail center, Shoppes on Maine and Canal Place opened in fall 2007 with anchor tenants that include:
- SuperTarget (175,000 sq. ft.)
- Lowe’s
- Wehrenberg’s 16 multiplex theatre
- Dick’s Sporting Goods
- PetsMart and
- Best Buy

There will be 12 pad sites for restaurants and freestanding retail surrounding breathtaking water features and pedestrian-friendly amenities. Over 800 hotel rooms under development within ½ mile of the center will be opening in 2008.
