Just found a wikipedia article on the new mall in Balzac that will, as I just found out, be called CrossIron Mills.
Thought I'd pass on the link and some info to this interested:
- 968,751.9 sq ft (initially)
- Future expansions will include a movie theatre complex, additional restaurants, hotels, and of the course the Horse Racing facility and Casino.
- Total development will be 674 acres.
- Metis Trail (36th Street NE) is being expanded and extended out to CrossIron Mills. The QE2 will be the other major access.
- 10-15 anchor stores (apparently no department stores) and approximately 180 stores total including retail, entertainment, and restaurants.
- Opening August 2009
