Landmark Mall Redevelopment: Second Public Meeting on Wednesday

Didn’t get a seat at the first community meeting on the future of Landmark Mall in April?

The city of Alexandria and the Howard Hughes Corp, which owns the central portion of the mall to be redeveloped, have scheduled a second meeting at 7 p.m. Wednesday.

The meeting will begin with an open house, during which residents can speak with city staff, at 7 p.m., to be followed at 8 p.m. by a community comments forum. The meeting will take place on the second level of the mall, near the former New York & Company store. Signs will be posted in the mall to direct participants to the meeting location.

Howard Hughes has submitted applications to demolish the central portion of the mall and replace it with a mixed-use town center with retail, restaurants and upper-level residential. The project would reflect an urban village design with a grid network of streets, while Sears and Macy’s, which each own about a third of the mall, would stay put.

City staff is currently reviewing the redevelopment applications. Residents can post questions or comments about the proposed project on the city’s Landmark Mall Redevelopment.

Anyone with additional questions about the meeting or about the city review process for the Landmark Mall project can contact Pat Escher via email at Patricia.Escher@alexandriava.gov or by phone at 703-746-3812, or Colleen Willger at Colleen.Willger@alexandriava.gov or by phone at 703-746-3817.
