Seritage Growth Properties (NYSE: SRG) (the “Company”) a national owner and developer of 170 residential and mixed-use properties, and Invesco Real Estate, a global real estate investment manager, today announced Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) (“Amazon”) has signed a lease for 123,000 square feet at The Collection at UTC in La Jolla, California, with plans to create more than 700 corporate and tech jobs over the coming years. The Collection at UTC is now 93% leased.

Amazon will occupy the entire top two floors of The Collection, joining a diverse group of world-class tenants that includes Williams Sonoma, Pottery Barn Kids, Pacific Catch, CB2, Blue Bottle Coffee, Ideal Image, Madison Reed and more.
