Overview

On July 13, 2026, the Glass family -- through Avenue I 1080 Realty Co. LLC, tied to Glass Gardens Inc. -- acquired the ShopRite-anchored shopping center at 1080 McDonald Avenue in Borough Park from Mc Donald Center, L.L.C. (the Leser Group) for $40.6 million, confirmed by PincusCo and Boro Park 24.

The Glass family already operates the ShopRite at this address through Glass Gardens Inc.; the Leser Group had owned the site since 1985.
