City Creek Center Project: Personal Blog #1

In 2003, Salt Lake's previous Crossroads Mall was purchased by a real estate division of the LDS church, and is now undergoing the development of what is to be City Creek Center. Plans for the center call for shopping and residential elements, with foliage-lined walkways and streams covering three blocks in the heart of downtown Salt Lake.

The new mall will offer an open-air design, similar to the outdoor Gateway mall. The current City Center Trax stop will also provide access to the area. Department stores such as Nordstrom and Macy's will be integrated, as well as a Harmon's grocery store. Businesses such as Beneficial Financial Group and possibly even Global Exchange Place have also been included in the design. Residential options include over 300 units, both condos and apartments. The City Creek project is scheduled to be completed in 2012.
