CITRUS PARK — Three national retailers are moving into The Plaza at Citrus Park, filling space in a shopping center that has watched a string of tenants leave in recent years.
Nordstrom Rack, HomeGoods and Total Wine & More are taking over two large storefronts that will be converted into four spaces. Construction is already underway, and Total Wine appears to be on track to open first, though no date has been announced.
A tenant map from Kimco Realty, which manages the plaza, shows HomeGoods going in to the right of Best Buy, with Total Wine next door. Nordstrom Rack will occupy a separate space nearby. Two rental spaces remain available.
A fourth new tenant, KidStrong — a gym franchise offering CrossFit-style programs for children — is also expected to open soon.
The plaza, a restaurant and retail district across the street from Citrus Park Town Center, has lost several tenants in recent years, including JoAnn Fabrics, which closed all its stores by May 2025, Party City, Honey Baked Ham Co. and, years before that, the anchor store Sports Authority.
One restaurant space also sits empty after the closure of Smoky Bones. Twin Hospitality, formerly FAT Brands Inc., acquired 60 Smoky Bones locations in 2023 and said in late 2025 it had identified 19 for conversion into the Twin Peaks chain. The Brandon Smoky Bones was successfully converted last year, and the Citrus Park location has appeared in court documents related to an LLC filing, but no further plans have been announced.
