Kingsdale Shopping Center to be Redeveloped
The following is an excerpt from a news advisory released on October 3, 2008, by Continental Real Estate Companies:
Continental Real Estate Companies and its development partner Upper Arlington resident Mark Catalano announced today their plans to redevelop the Kingsdale Shopping Center in Upper Arlington. Mark Catalano and Continental CEO Frank Kass made the announcement.
“We are working very closely with Upper Arlington on our site plan for a neighborhood mixed-use project,” said Kass. “We clearly understand the importance of this location and this center to the City. We look forward to delivering a destination that creates jobs, adds value and becomes a true focal point for Upper Arlington.”
The project’s redevelopment plan calls for the expansion and addition of numerous
tenants, including a new state-of-the-art Giant Eagle supermarket that will increase its size from 56,000 square-feet to more than 97,000 square-feet. Also included in the plan is up to 100,000
square-feet of retail and restaurants, a fitness center and Class A office/medical space.
