Nation’s Top Hunting & Fishing Retailer Sets Sight on Mahoning Valley:

Bass Pro Shops Coming To Eastwood Mall Complex

 

Eastwood Mall Complex’s growth spurt continues!  An exciting destination for outdoors enthusiasts will soon call the Eastwood Mall Complex home.  Bass Pro Shops Outpost is planning to welcome customers to a 63,000 square foot location in the Howland Commons section of the complex just across the parking lot from a soon to be opened HomeGoods and Meijer.  Bass Pro Shops Outpost is set to open within the next twelve months.  The Eastwood Mall Complex location will be Bass Pro Shops’ only location within 150 miles of the Mahoning Valley.  It will offer the region’s most comprehensive selection of premium outdoor fishing and hunting gear, with great low prices and friendly, expert service.

The store will showcase industry-leading fishing boats, with popular names like Tracker, Nitro, Sun Tracker, Regency and Tahoe.  Built by Bass Pro’s White River Marine Group, the inventory will be tailored to the needs of anglers in Northeast Ohio and Western Pennsylvania.  Bass Pro Shops is poised to become Trumbull County’s top tourism destination. In communities across the country where Bass Pro Shops has opened, its stores serve as a major economic driver attracting millions of visitors annually seeking its one-of-a-kind experiential retail offerings.  To read more about Bass Pro’s plans for the Eastwood Mall location, click this link:  https://about.basspro.com/newsroom/stories/bass-pro-shops-north-americas-premier-outdoor-and-conservation-company-announces-new-destination-retail-store-in-niles-oh/

Bass Pro Shops started in 1972 when Johnny Morris started selling fishing tackle out of his dad’s Brown Derby Liquor Store in Springfield, Missouri. Today the company operates 177 locations, including many Cabela’s store, which Bass Pro acquired in 2017.

The addition of Bass Pro Shops Outpost is just the latest exciting addition to a rapidly growing roster of businesses at the Eastwood Mall Complex, which has become the most dynamic retail and entertainment focal point in the region.  No other destination in the Valley has experienced such growth and investment over the past 24 months. Already in 2023, Eastwood has announced the pending opening of anew Meijer superstore and fueling station, HomeGoods, Longhorn Steakhouse, Mudslingers Coffee, Mission BBQ, Nrgize Lifestyle Café, JD Sports, Daily Thread, Box Lunch, McAlister’s Deli and Flynn Tire & Auto Service, with even more stores and restaurants in the planning stage.

The Eastwood Mall Complex is located at 5555 Youngstown-Warren Road, in Niles, Ohio.  It is one of America’s largest shopping centers and attracts more than 13.5 million visitors annually with more than 200 department stores, specialty shops, restaurants, hotels and entertainment options including Eastwood Field, home of The Mahoning Valley Scrapper’s – a MLB Draft League affiliate.  The Eastwood Mall Complex is locally owned and managed by the Cafaro Family having their corporate headquarters at the mall in Niles.

Clarksville Named 2022’s Hottest ZIP Code by Opendoor.com

Published Wednesday, January 11, 2023 9:00 am

by Michelle Hueffmeier

The Clarksville-Montgomery County Economic Development Council (EDC) is excited to share that Clarksville was named the hottest ZIP code in the country, and a recurring homebuyer favorite, according to a recent study by Opendoor.com

The digital real estate company ranked the Clarksville zip code 37042 at the top of the list for housing affordability and quality of life for 2022. Describing Clarksville as a thriving close-knit local community, close to the action in Nashville.

“Affordability and a strong school system are key drivers for the housing market, especially when choosing where to raise a family – Clarksville ranks high in both and has a great quality of life that draws people to the community.  With growth anticipated to continue, we are actively collaborating with the Regional Planning Commission and local government to plan for the future and ensure the area can meet the growing demand for attainable housing.” Buck Dellinger, Clarksville, Montgomery County Economic Development Council CEO said.

“When interacting with leaders from other communities, we constantly get asked the same question, “What’s the secret to your growth and success in Montgomery County?”  I always give the same answer, it is the people of Montgomery County that make it a special place to live, work, and serve. The combination of good people, top-notch schools for K-12 and beyond, and the beauty of the area, are all qualities people seek when looking for a place to call home. If you are involved in our community, this should not be a surprise,” Montgomery County Mayor Wes Golden said.

“The location of 37042 in our community makes it a very attractive area to live.  It is near Fort Campbell, good schools, parks and recreation opportunities, and the road, sidewalk and utility infrastructure are all well positioned to keep up with growth,” City of Clarksville Mayor Joe Pitts said.

Major Reconstruction Underway at

The Mall of Monroe

 

As promised, the ongoing redevelopment of The Mall Of Monroe continues.  The latest step in the process involves construction activity to fulfill the needs of two major businesses, Cubesmart and Ragnarok Supply & Motorworks.

Demolition work is now underway in the 78,000 square foot space that will house Cubesmart.  The space was originally used as a Sears store.  By the middle of this year, it will be transformed into a climate-controlled self-storage facility with approximately 500 storage units.  As part of the $4 million project, there will also be a retail store that will offer moving and storage supplies.

Reconstruction work is also about to get underway inside a 51,000 space for Ragnarok Supply & Motorworks.  This space, the former location of a Pat Catan’s hobby store, will be divided into two distinct areas.  Automotive service bays will be constructed, where skilled technicians will customize vehicles for outdoor and specialized purposes. The remainder of the space will house an outdoor supplies retail store.  Ragnarok is tentatively scheduled to open for business by late spring.

The ongoing redevelopment of The Mall Of Monroe has created a true multi-purpose community center, with a variety of retail, recreational, entertainment and other businesses under one roof.  Currently, planning is underway to introduce even more new businesses, with announcements scheduled in the coming months.

The Mall Of Monroe has been serving the people of southeast Michigan since 1988.  It is located at 2121 North Monroe Street in Frenchtown Township, Michigan.  For more information, visit online at www.themallofmonroe.com.  The Mall Of Monroe is owned and managed in association with the Cafaro family of companies, based in Niles, Ohio.  One of the nation’s largest privately held shopping center developers, the Cafaro organization has, over the years, developed more than 30 million square feet of commercial real estate in 14 states.  For more information, visit www.cafarocompany.com.
