Haag Brown Commercial is excited to announce Ross Dress for Less, the nation’s largest off-price retail chain, will be locating to the Highland Square Shopping Center at the corner of Caraway Road and Highland Drive.

“Since the day we opened Haag Brown Commercial, we have been trying to recruit Ross to Jonesboro. To say we are happy to be making this announcement in an understatement.” Joshua Brown | Haag Brown Commercial Principal

The discount retailer will occupy 22,000 square feet at the northern endcap of the former Kmart space that is directly across from Regions Bank and has frontage on Highland Drive.

Kmart had been a staple at the corner of Caraway and Highland since the building was constructed in the late 1980’s. The highly recognized space was brought to the market for the first time in almost 4 decades by Haag Brown Commercial at the end of 2016.

Haag Brown Commercial represented the Highland Square center’s ownership group, Phillips Investments & Construction, Inc. in securing the lease with Ross.

The intersection of Highland and Caraway has been the epicenter for new restaurant and retail growth, adding Smoothie King, Tommy’s Carwash, Texas Roadhouse, and Bargain Hunt within the last 12 months.

The reemergence of this area has been the focal point of countless business articles and this announcement will no doubt be among the biggest.
