Bloomberg reports: A Morgan Stanley real estate fund is in contract to acquire the largest mall in downtown Saint Petersburg for an investment of around $1.1 billion. Galeria Saint Petersburg was completed in 2010 and has over 1 million square feet of leasable area spread over five floors featuring global and local tenants.

According to Real Capital Analytics, Russian commercial sales totaled around $6.3 billion last year, down 15 percent from 2010 and 48 percent from more attractive times in 2008. Despite this, Russia’s lack of high quality mall space has fueled a recent retail boom.

Meridian Capital, and Capital Partners, a local Russian firm, are selling the center after appointing Jones Lang LaSalle to sell the property last June. The deal is scheduled to close later this month.
