Englewood Construction announced five new retail projects to kick off 2012, including three in the Midwest and two in Florida.
Englewood’s newest project for Wisconsin-based doll retailer American Girl, the company will combine four vacant storefronts into one large 15,000 square-foot retail space for American Girl. The project, located in The Falls Mall in Miami, marks the seventh store Englewood Construction has built for American Girl.
Construction on the 15,000-square-foot store, which is American Girl’s first Florida location, will start this spring and is scheduled for completion in November 2012. Pasadena, Calif.-based Jacobs Engineering Group is serving as architect for the store.
Englewood Construction is also renovating mall space as part of three new projects for maternity clothing retailer Destination Maternity.
The first project was a 4,007-square-foot Destination Maternity store in premier shopping destination Mall of America in Bloomington, Minn., which was completed in January. The construction firm also recently completed two stores for the maternity retailer under the Motherhood Maternity name: a 1,852-square-foot store located in The Shoppes at Grand Prairie Mall in Peoria, Ill.; and a 1,537-square-foot store at Marketplace at Seminole Towne Center in Sanford, Fla. The architect for all three projects is Cortland Morgan, Architects out of Arlington, Texas.
In the Chicago area, Englewood Construction is under contract with Brixmor to complete an interior build-out for party supply retailer Party City. Scheduled for completion this month, the 11,930-square-foot Party City store is located in the Annex of Arlington Heights. The architect for the project is Elk Grove Village, Ill.-based JTS Architects.
