This project includes repaving parking lots and replacing curbs along with updating landscape and painting the exterior of the mall. Right now, construction is happening in four different parking lots on the east side of the building. Parking may be limited, specifically near 110 Grill and JC Penney and in the Macy's lot, but there's still plenty of available parking in other parts of the mall for visitors. The mall will only be working on a couple of parking lots at a time to avoid any huge disruptions. Mall officials mall officials explain the importance of these enhancements. These improvements are part of a modernization strategy for us, a new rebranding. Um, we're really excited to have the exterior look um, as best as possible to create a welcoming environment for our shoppers. This is also the Holio Mall's way of also investing in current and new tenants. They will be welcoming in tenants like Pickleball Kingdom and some others.
