Carter Delays Columbus Park Crossing Start

COLUMBUS, GA-Construction start on the roadway and regional mall in North Columbus is moved from this fall to early next year with a summer 2002 opening projected. Columbus is 200 miles south of Downtown Atlanta.

COLUMBUS, GA- Atlanta-based Ben Carter Properties had hoped to have the bulldozers moving by now on the 100-acre Columbus Park Crossing retail center. Instead, Carter has moved the start date of the planned parkway and 750,000-sf center to early next year. A hoped-for Thanksgiving 2001 opening has been pushed back to a summer-2002 opening.

Carter’s reason for the delay is that “the project has gotten better,” according to Steve Cadranel, executive VP for Ben Carter Properties. Cadranel says the project has grown beyond initial expectations, in terms of local and regional retailers and restaurants, and the company needed more time to accommodate the interested businesses. He says the number of big-box retailers may increase from 10 to 12.
