[edit] History
Ground was broken in May of 2005[5] by Marnell Corrao the project contractor. [6] Town Square was designed by Development Design Group, Alan J. Mayer Architect and Marnell Corrao Associates.[6] It is located on the former site of Vacation Village.
An existing 300,000-square-foot (28,000 m²) Fry's Electronics store on an adjacent site was incorporated into the project.[4]
While still under construction, the development was the centerpiece of the International Council of Shopping Centers convention, which began May 24, 2007.[4] Opened on November 14, 2007[7] the complex includes 22 new buildings incorporating 1,500,000 sq ft (139,000 m²) of retail space. It also includes a 9,000 sq ft (840 m²) Children's Park.[5][1]
A wide array of stores such as H&M, Apple, Guitar Center, Martin + Osa, Abercrombie & Fitch, Sephora, and Lucky Brand Jeans are open. An 18-screen RAVE Motion Pictures and restaurants Claim Jumper, Louis's Las Vegas, and Louis's Fish Camp are also open. Many of the stores located on the north side of the project are still under construction and will open by Spring 2008, including anchors Robb & Stucky Interiors, Whole Foods Market, and Borders Books and Music. A complete store directory can be found at the Town Square website, www.townsquarelasvegas.com.[1].
