Three NEW Area Malls Update


The Cypress Creek Town Center shown to the left, a planned 1.3 million square ft. Regional Mall continues to plod forward.
The location of the planned mall is at I-75 & S.R. 56 in Wesley Chapel. Next step is a September 26th appointment with the board of the Southwest Florida Water Management District. (Swiftmud).




The proposed Shops at Wiregrass mall located at Bruce B. Downs and S.R. 56, is just a few miles east of the Cypress Creek Town Center. After the construction of JC Penney, the mall has been slow to get approvals for the proposed construction of the rest of the mall. Total square footage for this mall is reported to be 800,000.



Lastly, the planned mall at C.R. 54 & I-75, also in Wesley Chapel, has a planned 800,000 square feet. Demolition of some previous structures at the location has begun.






All three malls will look to attracting customers from the prestigious community of New Tampa. I believe at one point all three proposed malls had planned opening dates of 2007. In my opinion that is unlikely.
