The confluence of five roads creates a site of exceptional convenience in the heart of the affluent South Hills.
"At the main entrance to South Park" is a location known to everyone because of the extensive park activities and programs drawing 4.2 million visitors on a year-round basis.
Bethel Park is a dense trade area and the thirteenth most affluent zip code out of 94 in the Pittsburgh area and the fifteenth most affluent out of 214 zip codes in the six-County area.
Customers are attracted weekly by Pittsburgh's two major supermarkets: Giant Eagle and Shop'N Save and a newcomer to the street, Aldi's. With the opening of Walmart in 2005, this is the dominant retail concentration in the Route 88 corridor.
Facing both Baptist Road and Route 88 and with seven curb cuts, stores enjoy excellent visibility, easy ingress and egress, and exposure to more than 36,000 cars daily.
Route 88 has been widened with a third turning lane, and traffic flow has been improved at the park entrance. Penn Dot will eventually complete three lanes all the way north to a new intersection with Route 51.
Long-established and successful tenants are the best indicators of the desirability of this location:
Rite Aid, Brentwood Bank and predecessors, McDonald's, Eat'n Park, Hallmark, and Shear Talent, over 40 years.
On-site management yields high standards of cleanliness, maintenance, and security. Effective promotional programs have developed community awareness and loyalty to South Park Shops.
