IRVINE, CA—Mixed-use development has become more accepted even in suburban environments, featuring product types that include hotel, office, apartments, retail and more, Irvine Co.‘s president of retail properties Dave Moore tells GlobeSt.com. The company recently announced a major $150-million reinvestment in Irvine Spectrum Center—celebrating its 20th anniversary—that will feature more than 20 new stores, new landscaping, outdoor seating and shade areas, state-of-the-art amenities and circulation and parking-garage improvements.
