Managing ongoing commercial operations while executing structural overhauls requires careful staging. Management has structured the master revitalization across three defined operational windows, balancing construction noise with merchant access.
| Phase & Timeframe | Key Tenant / Infrastructure Project | Space Allocation | Operational Status |

| Phase 1: Mid-2024, Late 2025 | Apple Retail Store & Outparcel Upgrades | 8,200 sq ft (Interior Core) | Completed / Operational |
| Phase 2: Early 2025, Mid-2026 | Yard House Restaurant Construction | 10,500 sq ft + Patio | Fit-Out in Progress |
| Phase 2: Late 2025, Late 2026 | DC Fast-Charging EV Superhub | 24 Dedicated Parking Bays | Civil Works Active |
| Phase 3: Early 2026, Q2 2027 | Cinema Complex & Anchor Pad Repurposing | 45,000 sq ft Reconfigured | Leasing & Permitting |
The pacing reflects lease expiration schedules. Property managers avoided mass evictions, opting instead to allow legacy specialty leases to lapse before demolishing dividing walls to create larger footprints for incoming brands.
