Join a thriving tenant mix in one of Bloomington’s most recognizable retail destinations—Bloomington Commons Shopping Center—strategically positioned at the high-traffic crossroads of Veterans Parkway and E. Empire/Route 9.

Position your brand in the heart of Bloomington Commons in this highly visible former Toys “R” Us box, completely redeveloped in 2021 for Jo-Ann Fabrics. The building offers modern storefront appeal, strong traffic from the surrounding Bloomington Commons shopping center, and excellent access and parking. With Aqua Tots Swim School set to anchor the center, this location gives your business built-in family traffic and daily activity from complementary uses.

Aqua Tots, with 175 locations worldwide and rapidly expanding, will anchor the center as its second Central Illinois location, drawing 140–150 families to the site daily with consistent hourly turnover.

Approximately ±15,000 SF of open, flexible space is available, and ownership will consider leasing the entire building to a single user or demising it for a 3–4 tenant configuration. This is an ideal opportunity for retailers, medical users, fitness, or service concepts seeking a prominent Bloomington address with room to grow.
