The pedestrian experience will be enlivened with patios, soft seating and covered outdoor space." The strategy for the Village is to design buildings that blend the old and new together.

#DINO NORTH POINT MALL FULL#
"'The Village is fun and full of social activity and takes the place of the demolished portion of the mall. Trademark has organized the master plan in three distinctive yet connected districts, designated as The Neighborhood, Village and Station. Upon completion, the new "North Point" will introduce up to 315,700 square feet of new retail, restaurant, and creative office space, 120,000 square feet of office space, a 150 key hotel, 17+ acres of civic/amenity space, 36 townhomes and 900 multifamily residential units. The first phase of the redevelopment is expected to deliver 85,200 square feet of new retail, restaurant, and service space, a 50,000 square-foot retail/entertainment anchor space, a 15,000 square-foot food hall, 25,000 square feet of entertainment space, 25,000 square feet of creative office/coworking space, and 320 multifamily residential units. Also planned are interactive water features, intimate pocket parks with art and soft seating, a village green space with outdoor dining and a variety of meandering paths and gardens, including a food and beverage garden with "a specimen tree." The project is also expected to include a so-called "Sustainable Park" that collects and redistributes storm water. (a sibling entity of former North Point Mall owner Brookfield Property Partners, LP) and Simon Property Group purchased JCPenney out of bankruptcy in late 2020.Īmong the updates planned for the re-imagined "North Point" are several outdoor areas including a 10,500 square foot "event plaza" that can accommodate more than 2,500 concertgoers. Since then, 175 stores have permanently closed, including eight in Georgia including the one at Northlake Mall in Tucker.

JCPenney announced plans in May 2020 to close almost 30% of its then 846 stores as part of a restructuring under bankruptcy protection. Of the current anchors, JCPenney is least likely to be part of the redevelopment. Today North Point Mall is anchored by Dillard's, Macy's, Von Maur, JCPenney and a 12-screen AMC Theatres multiplex. ToNeTo Atlanta wrote about North Point Mall in 2014, at the time the mall was celebrating its 21st birthday. North Point featured more than 1.3 million square feet of retail space, five anchor stores at opening and more than 7,000 parking spaces. North Point Mall, developed by Homart Development Company, a subsidiary of former anchor Sears, first opened in late 1993 and at the time was one of the largest malls in the county.
