Creating Special Places

dots

Placemaking

We revitalize communities by transforming obsolete real estate into vibrant and exciting retail destinations.  These special places are distinctive and convey a real sense of place for the communities they serve.

Too often existing retail centers fail to keep pace with evolving consumer preferences.  Our projects address these deficiencies with the most appropriate and compelling mix of retailers, restaurants and entertainment venues.

We foster a real sense of place by incorporating elements from the community’s heritage and culture.  We also offer space where the community can gather and socialize.  As a result, our projects energize communities and provide them with a true focal point. 

Case Study

Gardens on El Paseo

We created the first open-air lifestyle center in the upscale resort town of Palm Desert, California.  While this popular vacation destination offered many amenities, it lacked a community focal point where people could gather, shop and enjoy desert culture and style.  Gardens on El Paseo met this need when it opened in 1998 boasting 200,000 square feet of retail and ample space for cultural events and community activities.
