About Eastwood Towne Center
Eastwood Towne Center is a popular spot for people of all ages. It's designed to feel like a friendly town square, but with all your favorite stores. It's a great place to spend an afternoon shopping or grabbing a bite to eat.
History and Growth
Eastwood Towne Center first opened its doors in 2002. It was built by a company called Jeffrey R. Anderson Real Estate. When it opened, it quickly became a favorite place for shopping and entertainment.
By 2017, the center had grown quite a bit. It now has more than 55 different shops, places to eat, and services. One of its biggest attractions is the NCG Cinemas, which has 19 movie screens! That's a lot of movies to choose from.
The shopping center covers a large area, with about 332,131 square feet (or 30,856 square meters) of space for stores.
Future Plans
In March 2010, there were plans to make Eastwood Towne Center even bigger. This expansion was going to add about 42,000 square feet (3,902 square meters) of new space. The project was expected to cost around $85 million.
The expansion plans included some exciting new features. There would be a new parking garage, plus new apartments and condos for people to live in. More shops and restaurants were also planned. The NCG Cinemas movie theater was also set to get an addition, making it even larger.
In June 2011, Lansing Township helped with some of the costs for this big project. They provided $22 million to help with the development. This shows how important Eastwood Towne Center is to the local community.
