History

Promenade Saucon Valley opened on October 27, 2006. Its construction and development cost was $125 million.[1][7] A parade was held to celebrate the center's opening.[1] The Promenade is home to the first L.L.Bean outfitter in Pennsylvania.[8]

In January 2020, the center lost several stores, increasing its vacancy to eighteen percent.[9][10]

Several more stores closed during Promenade's March 17, 2020 to June 5, 2020 COVID-19 pandemic shutdown, increasing vacancy to 25 percent.[4] Centennial Advisory Services and MSC took over leasing and management of The Promenade Shops at Saucon Valley in April 2022.[3]

In April 2024, Promenade Shops at Saucon Valley was renamed Promenade Saucon Valley due to the center's repositioning and tenant changes.[11][12]
