Exciting changes are under way at
the new Shelter Cove Mall and Waterfront Park! Construction is in progress.We
will continue to post up to date photos of the project, but in case you missed
all the details please see below.
In June of 2012, the Town of Hilton
Head unanimously backed the plan presented by Blanchard & Calhoun
Commercial Real Estate to redevelop the Shelter Cove Mall into Shelter Cove Towne Centre - a vibrant
part of the Hilton Head Island economy and community culture. Demolition of the
existing building began in January 2013 and by February 12th; the
Town of Hilton Head Island gave final approval to Wood+Partners,
Inc. and architectural firms MSTSD, Lee & Parker, Tom Crews Architects on their design for the
mixed use project. Boasting 295,000 SF of retail and restaurant space anchored
by Kroger and Belk, 210 luxury apartments, and
a 5-acre linear waterfront park,
the rejuvenated area will provide both residents and vacationers with a
unique outdoor shopping and residential experience in a park-like
atmosphere.
Other than providing enjoyment of
the Broad Creek and ideal waterfront event space, a new waterfront park will
offer residents and visitors walking and biking trails which connect Broad
Creek to Burke’s Beach and other existing trail systems on the island. Phase
one of the development is scheduled to open in the fourth quarter of
2013.
