An exciting addition is coming to Chapel Hill’s vibrant Franklin Street!

We’ve successfully secured a tenant for the 2,140-square-foot space at 127 East Franklin Street. Zaxby’s, the popular fast-casual restaurant chain, will be opening one of its rare inline stores in this prime location, just steps away from UNC’s campus.

This strategic move capitalizes on the high student foot traffic in the area, making it an ideal spot for Zaxby’s to serve the Chapel Hill community and Tar Heel students. Construction is set to begin in late January, with an anticipated opening in Q1 2025.

The York team is already plotting our “quality control mission” to ensure the Chicken Fingerz™ meet our high standards – purely in the name of professional diligence, of course.

York-broker James Troxler is proud to have represented the landlord in this exciting deal, working collaboratively with Ross Robison who represented Zaxby’s Corporate.

We are excited to welcome Kyowa Kirin into office space at 130 N. Steele St in Downtown Sanford! The Japanese pharmaceutical company continues their commitment to Sanford by locating in the heart of Downtown.

This unique building that was once a Capital Bank building was rehabilitated by James Goodnight – this will be the first of his Sanford projects to be put to a new use!

Locals in Sanford are welcoming the change and are looking forward to the economic growth and investment that will result from this move.

York-broker Brian Wallace was pleased to represent the landlord in this transaction.

Congratulations again to Kyowa Kirin, and welcome to Downtown Sanford!

We were delighted to have Julian Sansom-Goodman, local senior at Enloe High School, intern with us last summer and assist the brokerage. Enloe’s academy design club required students to complete 120 hours of intern work to supplement the club’s learning objectives and we were happy to offer Julian that opportunity with us.

Julian’s first choice for college this fall is Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia, where he hopes to receive a baseball scholarship. Julian would be the third generation of his family to attend. He is planning to major in business administration.

Our relationship with the Sansom family goes back many years. Julian’s grandfather, Joseph Sansom (pictured), has partnered with our company on several business deals. One of the most notable of which is managing Southgate Plaza, a popular shopping center in southeast Raleigh.

Joseph worked at IBM for many years after graduating college. During that time, he was also drafted to serve in the army. Joseph later retired from IBM and became the first Black N.C. Deputy State Treasurer. He has been involved with Mechanics & Farmers Bank throughout his professional career and is currently Chairman of the Raleigh City Advisory Board.

The goal of Mechanics & Farmers Bank is to serve the community by providing essential services as a full-service commercial bank. M&F Bank was founded in 1907 and is the second oldest minority-owned bank in the US.

Joseph’s long term hopes for his working relationship with York is to continue serving the community for years to come and expanding the business throughout Raleigh. His favorite part of being business partners with us is collaborating with the creative and open-minded people on our team.
