These are all features contributing to the desirability to be part of the future of this location.

“We’ve had multiple meetings with site architects, site planners, and real estate brokers who understand the value and share the same excitement as our team on the potential for this site,” said Pat Gillespie, President of the Gillespie Group, who purchased the property in 2007. “Right now, I envision a mix of entertainment, retail, and experience-driven businesses to maximize the future of the site and complement the surrounding residents, students, businesses, and community as a whole. It’s all a clean slate.”
