Perkins Road will be home to a new indoor playground.
It’s My Party, which is operated under a limited liability company called Home Run Real Estate, has purchased a 1.75-acre site on Perkins Road, just east of Staring and Essen lanes for the planned playground.
It’s My Party is an indoor play facility with inflatable games such as a 24 foot-high slide, a 70-foot obstacle course and an assortment of bounce houses. The company specializes in birthday parties, team events, lock-ins and field trips. Currently, the operation is located on Anselmo Lane.
The new site was purchased from the succession of Samuel Simon Morris on Jan. 21 and closed for $435,000, or about $5.70 per square foot.
It had been marketed by Brent Struthers at Beau Box Commercial Real Estate.
Troy Daigle at Donnie Jarreau Companies represented the purchasers.
“It is a very functional site for the new location of It’s My Party,” Daigle said. “It has 165 feet of frontage on Perkins Road and it has a strip of land that is about 30 feet wide that provides access to Staring Lane so it has access from two major streets.”
In other news, JNR Hospitality, a limited liability corporation, intends to develop an Americas Best Value Inn at the intersection of Airline Highway and Swamp Road in Prairieville.
The hotel operator purchased a 1-acre site near the intersection on Jan. 29 for $345,680, or about $8 per square foot.
The proposed hotel will have between 50 and 70 rooms. The property purchased is situated behind the Taco Bell and is accessed by a private driveway off Airline Highway and Swamp Road.
“It is a new prototype Americas Best Value that will set a higher standard than other franchise hotels in the area,” says Naresh Patel, who represents JNR Hospitality.
Daigle also represents the seller and buyer in this transaction.
