Leeds to get a new outlet mall (Birmingham: 2010, moving)

[A&M Bulldawg]

I heard on ABS 33/40 that a new outlet mall will be built in Leeds between Barber Motorsports and Bass Pro Shop. There are about 35 possible retailers, such as Banana Republic and Gap, who are predicted to come. It will be completed for the 2010 shopping season.

Daniel Corp. and two partners are ready to build a $127 million outlet mall in Leeds that's meant to rival upscale centers in vacation destinations, and they already have lined up nearly three dozen retailers for the center. The team plans to open the mall in time for the holiday shopping season of 2010, moving ahead with the project at a time when other developers are retrenching. Its design and layout are similar to outlet centers in Pigeon Forge, Tenn., and Destin, Fla.
