I guess SouthPark is getting a Crate & Barrel!

More than likely it'll be on SouthPark mall property, but you never know. It could be at Northlake.

[DigitalSky]

that would be a real regional draw for Northlake if it does end up there - plus it would be super close to the Lincoln County distribution center!

A building permit was issued this week for the foundation/footings for the new Village at SouthPark. Looks like they should be starting up in a couple of weeks. I would assume this means that Crate & Barrell is going there.

What is the Re-Zoning sign still doing on the lot Atlrvr? Is there still something that still is pending with the development and the city?

The rezoning I believe is for the Dillards Site-Plan Ammendment so they can expand.

[Rufus]

this may have already been posted, but what is the layout of Sout Park Mall with the renovations? Does anyone have a map of the finished product?

Has anyone been around SouthPark lately? I haven't been in a few months and haven't seen if they've begun work on Dillard's.. I think they started building the deck though?

I didn't actually go in Dillard's, but it looked like only the deck was under construction.

[parkave231]

I was inside about a week ago.....I didn't notice anything, but I didn't go off of the first floor. They sure made short work of that deck, though...

Yeah, the deck is pretty much complete, or should be soon complete. They are really going to town on that project.

[DigitalSky]

I didn't think of this either, but I guess with the deck they'll have to carve out an upper level enterance to Dillard's as well

With the new upper level entrance, the old facade will have to go. Goodbye Modernism with integrity, Hello crappy dryvit and giant arches.

yup. Bye-bye 1970s facade, hello generic crap.

[StevenRocks]

Oh well, as much as I like the interior of Dillard's, it's time for a renovation. 1986 can't live forever.

Yeah the interior renovated would be nice.

If it was authentically Ivey's with no major changes (aka Hanes Mall), I might feel differently. But this is a big Dillard's at a prominent location that is looking shabby compared to everyone else (even Hecht's exited the '80s finally)

I am with you on that statement 100%. I can't believe it has taken them this long.

[DigitalSky]

yeah it does resemble Hanes' Dillard's interior.. so the interior renovated will be exciting

They used to look even more alike, but Dillard's ripped out a lot of the Ivey's SouthPark stuff on the first level about ten years ago.

I'm not a huge fan of Dillard's new interiors, but after the last few Belk remodels I've seen, I have to applaud them for being somewhat more distinctive by comparasin.

yeah they are distinctive

Was at SP Friday night on the way to the movies. Steel frame is up for Nieman's. Consumerism's next step isn't far away now.
