Remaking the Shopping Center

Due to the large number of unprofitable and outdated shopping centres, the increased competition between them, slow economic growth and the rapid changes in the retail industry, development professionals are increasingly concerned with improving performance of existing centres rather than building new ones.

This book provides a guide to re-development of these shopping centres by reviewing past issues and lessons learnt, as well as design, performance and planning problems.

It includes detailed case studies of eight centres in the USA, some of which have been renovated and some which have been expanded.
