Trigild Adds High Profile Michigan Shopping Center to Growing Portfolio

Oct. 14, 2011 - PRLog -- SAN DIEGO (October 14, 2011)-- San Diego based-Trigild has been hired by Grand Traverse Mall LLC, as the asset manager for The Grand Traverse Mall, an enclosed, single-story 590,000-square-foot shopping center with nearly 100 high profile tenants, including anchor stores Macy’s, JCPenney, Target and TJ Maxx. Opened in 1992, the mall is one of the largest shopping hubs in the region – with restaurants, theaters and an array of retail options – and is located in Traverse City, a popular resort town in Northern Michigan.

According to Trigild president and CEO Bill Hoffman, Trigild has been charged with readying the troubled mall for a profitable sale, as well as concentrating on leasing efforts to stabilize net operating income. "The mall has been challenged due to local and national economic issues," he said. “We are focusing on developing a disposition strategy and ultimately facilitating the disposition process. There will be no impact on shoppers, the mall will remain open and operate as usual.”  

In the interim, Trigild is overseeing all leasing efforts, and has tapped Dallas-based Trademark Properties as the mall’s property management firm.
