Expansion Plans
In 2011 the mall announced a proposed $100 million expansion plan that would include a three-level parking garage, 60,000 square feet (5,600 m2) of additional retail space, new store facades and improvements to traffic flow within the mall, its first major expansion since 1997. It estimates that the project would create 400 construction jobs and 350–400 permanent ones at the new stores. Work would be coordinated with improvements to the Thruway interchange already scheduled to begin in 2013, and take three years to complete.
