IMMOFINANZ Group has completed a further retail project in Poland: the Tarasy Zamkowe shopping center, which is located in the center of Lublin, was officially opened in a gala ceremony today. On 38,000 sqm of space, it provides a combination of shopping, entertainment, relaxation and leisure time activities - and all this with a balanced tenant and branch mix. The investment costs totalled approx. EUR 115 million.
"One of our current focal points for our development activities are retail projects in Poland. The opening of Tarasy Zamkowe not only sets a further milestone, it is also an excellent example of our business model - the real estate machine. Following the highly profitable sale of the Silesia City Center in Katowice during 2013, we have increased our retail space in Poland by more than 71,000 sqm. And further projects in our STOP.SHOP. and VIVO! brands are currently under construction or in preparation", commented Eduard Zehetner, CEO of IMMOFINANZ Group.
The opening ceremony for Tarasy Zamkowe was attended by representatives of IMMOFINANZ Group, the city government, the general contractor Warbud and the architecture firm Stelmach I Partnerzy.
Tarasy Zamkowe provides space for 150 retail companies, restaurants, a number of cafs and snack bars as well as parking for 1,400 cars on three levels. It can also be easily reached by public transportation or bicycle and even on foot. In addition to the 350,000 residents of Lublin, the catchment area covers roughly one million people.
Numerous well-known international and local retailers are represented in Tarasy Zamkowe, including the Inditex Group with all its brands (Zara, Pull&Bear, Massimo Dutti, Bershka, Stradivarius, Oysho, Zara Home), the LPP Group (Reserved, Cropp, House, Sinsay, Mohito, Home&You, Tab), H&M, Media Expert, Delikatesy Alma, Super-Pharm, Rossmann Premium, !con Fitness (managed by Holmes Place), CARRY and Swarovski.
Unique award for sustainable construction The design of Tarasy Zamkowe combines unique architecture with high ecological standards. The green areas on the building's roof are a special highlight: grassy fields, lots of plants, walkways and lookout points - the most spectacular vantage point gives visitors a unique view of the old city and the historical castle. Public areas at the corners of the shopping center provide quiet space and settings for events. This sustainable approach has been internationally recognised: in autumn 2014, Tarasy Zamkowe became the first shopping center in Poland to receive the "BREEAM Excellent certificate for the design stage".

DGAP-News: IMMOFINANZ Group opens Tarasy Zamkowe shopping center in Lublin
Crews began tearing down the south end of the Wilmot Plaza shopping center last week. It was once home to R&S Mattress, Christies Appliance and Brawleys Restaurant.
The property is being demolished to make way for a 14,000-square-foot building that will house up to four retail tenants, said Alan Tanner, retail principal with plaza owner Bourn Cos.
We werent sure if we were going to remodel the premises or take it, raze it and reconstruct it, Tanner said. In the long run, it made more sense to demo the building and rebuild.
Bourn Cos. acquired Wilmot Plaza, on the northeast corner of Wilmot Road and East Broadway, in 2013 with plans to redevelop the 10-acre property with more than 140,000 square feet of retail space.
In June of 2014, crews began tearing down the northern half of the center, including the old Popular Outdoor Outfitters.
In November, Bourn announced that Dicks Sporting Goods would serve as the plaza anchor with a brand-new 50,000-square-foot facility.
Tanner said construction is already underway on the future Dicks. The goal is to hand it over to the Pennsylvania-based chain in August.
The three remaining plaza businesses, T.J. Maxx, Burger King and Good Ole Toms, will remain open during construction.
Tanner said T.J. Maxx is in the process of receiving a new exterior storefront.
Burger Kings current building will be torn down, but not before a new BK is constructed just north of the old location, on the southwest corner of the plaza.
Controversial changes to a retail development plan on North Bechtle Avenue have been unanimously approved by Springfield city commissioners.
The undeveloped land north of Walmart could see the addition of up to nine new stores, including two large anchor stores, expanding the already busy retail area. Construction could begin this spring.
Two weeks ago, residents spoke out against the plan to add more retail to the popular Springfield shopping area, fearing traffic and trash may overwhelm their neighborhood on nearby St. Paris Pike and Home Road.
No one spoke in opposition at a commission meeting Tuesday evening.
The original plan for the site was approved in 2006, meaning development was planned regardless of whether the changes were approved or not, said Mayor Warren Copeland.
Its not like were going back to nothing if we vote against it, Copeland said.
Two stores have agreed in principle to build at the new development, while a deal with another is close, according to Jim Peifer, the developers attorney. One of the possible tenants is a big box store, but no more information has been released.
One store rumored to relocate to the area is Hobby Lobby, which is currently located in the Springfield Plaza Shopping Center, 1390 Upper Valley Pike. However, Hobby Lobby spokesman Vince Parker said theyre very happy with their current location.
Its strictly rumor, Parker said. Were not moving that store and have no plans to move that store.
Development of the original 2006 plan was slowed by the recession.
BAKERSFIELD, CA.-A home on Colgate Avenue in East Bakersfield is for sale, but this is no ordinary listing. Money from that home sale will help save women who are sold for sex.
Magdalene Hope is a local non-profit that helps victims of sex trafficking. Dedicated volunteer Susie Tors would walk up and down Union Avenue reaching out to potential victims. She also worked at the Magdalene Hope safe house.
"She just had a heart for the ladies," said Doug Bennett, Founder & President of Magdalene Hope. "She wanted to see women set free."
So when she passed away from stomach pains in 2013, her family came up with an idea to keep her passion alive.
"Her mother approached me and said you know we'd like to give you the home once the mortgage is paid and the back money is paid on the house," said Bennett. "We feel that Suzie would want to give to the organization even after she was gone."
The four bedroom home has two bathrooms and two backyard spaces, plus two living areas.
"It has 2,006 square feet, built in 1962," said realtor Katrina Blakemore. "Good features, great neighborhood, beautiful street, lots of trees."
Just like the women served by Magdalene Hope, the house needed a little love.
"Needed some love, needed a little bit of restoration, and needed a second chance," said Bennett.
So $23,000 dollars went into kitchen, electrical and carpet renovations. But the yellow bathroom kept its color because it was Suzie's favorite.
