The separation leaves a bank branch as the only signed tenant for the 1.4-million-sf commercial, residential and hotel development across from Bellevue Square, one of the largest mixed-use construction projects in the nation. Construction of the project halted last summer in response to the sagging economy and has yet to resume.

A representative of ArcLight, a division of Los Angeles-based Pacific Theaters Corporation, did not return a Tuesday phone call seeking comment. According to the documents filed with the county, the movie theater signed a 20-year lease agreement with four five-year extension options for the ground and mezzanine levels of the project's 315,000-sf retail piece, which was originally slated to open as early as last fall. The project also includes high-rise office and residential towers.

The project's majority owner is Lend Lease Real Estate Investments, which local real estate sources say began hunting for equity investors to provide more than $52 million in equity to revive the project. No such deal has been announced. A Lend Lease representative could not immediately be reached for comment.
