High anchor space limits leasing economics but offers redevelopment potential, with SNO leases providing visibility into future NOI growth. UE is now on my radar as a valid, undervalued investment, though peers like Whitestone, Kimco, and Brixmor remain key holdings. Read the full article on Seeking AlphaNarrative Update • Mar 12
