Recently construction work started on the outside of Sullivan Square, at the corner of Sprague & Sullivan. Today, business signs are missing and workers are already hard at work, but for what?
Sullivan Square is the second shopping center in the Sullivan Rd. corridor to get an all new look. We've even heard new business might even be on the way very soon. Here is the details on both projects...
Sullivan Square shopping center
The center, that's anchored by Hastings and Harbor Freight Tools is undergoing a full exterior remodel. Once completed ( no estimated completion date has been given to me ) the center will have a new more modern look. Leasing flyers for the site show this rendering of the completed development. Sorry if their a little small, they can be seen in full size on NAI Black's web site www.naiblack.com .
With some suites in the center are empty and available for lease ( as indicted above ) . There is already rumors of new businesses coming to Sullivan Square. I've heard that possibly, Ezell's Famous Chicken will open their second Spokane area location here.
But, as of now just construction is happening at the shopping center. However it is important to note all businesses in the center today remain open for business during the construction.
Shopping center at 615 N. Sullivan Rd.
Another shopping center just a couple of blocks to the north of Sullivan Square also has a new look. The un-named center at 615 N. Sullivan has been remodeled and also has a couple of storefronts on it's northern end empty and up for lease. However, as of now there are no rumors about what new businesses might open there. Although with the new look, and high traffic area we expect it to be only a matter of time.
615 N. Sullivan is the center by Noodles Express and anchored by a Jimmy John's Subs location. The center went from this...
To this....
Shopping center construction projects elsewhere...
While I'm only highlighting these two project now, it is of note that a couple of other projects are also happening or will happen soon in our area. Including a exterior remodel on part of Lincoln Heights Shopping Center on the South Hill. That remodel is to match the Rite Aid / 2nd Look Books side of the center with the Trader Joe's / Hallmark side which was remodeled when Trader Joe's opened a couple of years ago.
Also the center on Sprague, between Argonne and Mullan is too be redone. The former Apollo Spas store in North Spokane will become a three unit shopping center soon ( with a huge new business rumor on it ) . And, an all new shopping center / office development under construction now at 3rd & Browne in Downtown Spokane ( to have a Man Shop and Einstein Bros. Bagels ) .
