The former Macy’s space in Cortana Mall is under contract to an investor, who plans to repurpose the building.


quote:

The space could be turned into space for entertainment, office, warehouse or a food hall, said Jonathan Walker of Maestri-Murrell, during the Trends in real estate seminar.


quote:

“This is not a bad thing,” Walker said, noting how Virginia College has been a boost for Cortana.

There's a reason for that though. Same reason the mall is empty.

Nothing retail at least.

A development like Industriaplex would do well there at the intersection of two major highways. The area needs jobs.



If I'm not mistaken, the Cortana property did not flood.

I seen that before and I agree, but that area is just not a good place to open up anything..

Unless it was dirt cheap, I can't imagine why anyone would risk investing in that building.

Laser tag is trashy as hell. Get the kids some Nerf guns and send them out in the yard or something.
