The company also reveals it has entered agreements to sell the Nittany Mall in State College, PA and the North Hanover Mall in Hanover, PA.

"The successful completion of the sale of South Mall, coupled with our agreement to sell Nittany and North Hanover Malls, is a significant step for PREIT," says Joseph F. Coradino, CEO of PREIT. "We have made meaningful strides in reconstituting and elevating PREIT's portfolio quality, particularly at a time when the market is inundated with lower quality assets for sale.
