Virginia Beach, VA (March 25, 2026) — Divaris Real Estate, Inc. announces two retail leases at Town Center of Virginia Beach, signaling continued retailer confidence in one of Hampton Roads’ most established mixed-use destinations.
Abercrombie & Fitch has leased 5,033 square feet at 4537 Main St. in Town Center, joining other iconic retailers like Lululemon, Anthropologie, Free People, Madewell, and Bluemercury as another nationally well-known apparel name among the Main Street retail mix. The deal is especially notable as the brand continues a strong comeback, following record 2025 net sales for its parent company.
Virginia ABC Store has also leased 4,344 square feet at 220 Constitution Drive in Columbus Town Center II, relocating to a larger, more visible space next to the newly opened Trader Joe’s and Golf Galaxy, Ulta, Barnes & Noble, and Lovesac. The move reflects the growing value retailers place on convenience, co-tenancy, and consistent daily traffic.
“Town Center offers the kind of setting retailers look for when they want to be part of an active, walkable environment with strong surrounding energy,” said Sezin Cortinas, Executive Vice President with Divaris Real Estate, who represented the landlord in both transactions. “Abercrombie & Fitch is a great fit for Main Street, and Virginia ABC’s move shows how much value there is in being positioned near uses that drive steady customer flow throughout the day.”
“What stands out to me is how these leases strengthen the overall fabric of Town Center,” said Gerald Divaris, Chairman and CEO of Divaris Real Estate, who represented Virginia ABC Store in its lease at Columbus Town Center II. “One adds a nationally recognized retail brand to the mix, while the other builds on the everyday convenience that keeps people returning to the area. That kind of balance is what helps a place stay vibrant and relevant.”
