FRAMINGHAM - One of the staples of the Framingham retail landscape has a new owner, as Urban Edge Properties announced it has acquired the Shoppers World shopping plaza.

The New York-based real estate company published the results of their third quarter earnings on Tuesday, which included the details on their purchase of Shoppers World. The $309 million sale between Urban Edge and Ohio-based company SITE Centers was finalized on October 23, as it also included Everett’s Gateway Center.
