History
The $200 million project was developed by Stark Enterprises[2] and The Carney Foundation.[3] It features restaurants, retailers, residential, and entertainment.[4][5] The project also includes office space.[6]
The first phase opened October 29, 2004.
Borders vacated the center in 2011 and was replaced by a Nordstrom Rack in 2013.[9] The final phase, which was completed in 2014, includes a new corporate headquarters for American Greetings.[10] During the construction of the American Greetings headquarters building, on March 10, 2016, a propane tank ignited and exploded, creating a large fireball that towered over buildings and a blast that could be heard from over a mile away. There were no injuries reported, and no cause was determined. [11]
