LAS VEGAS — Bally’s Corp. (NYSE: BALY) has announced plans for Bally’s Las Vegas, an entertainment resort destination planned on the 35-acre site of the former Tropicana Las Vegas hotel and casino. The casino and sports entertainment operator is partnering with JLL and Marnell Cos. on the development, which is being submitted to Clark County for entitlements.

Bally’s expects construction at Bally’s Las Vegas to begin in the first half of 2026. “Bally’s Las Vegas represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to redefine the heart of the Strip,” says Soo Kim, chairman of the board of directors at Bally’s. “With world-class partners like JLL and Marnell, and with the arrival of Major League Baseball, we are not just building an integrated resort.

InterFace Panel: Houston Retail, Mixed-Use Developers Face All Manner of Barriers to Supply Growth

by Taylor Williams

Executing ground-up development for pure-play retail space — or retail product in mixed-use settings — in Houston is immensely challenging these days for a variety of reasons, despite the fact that the city has the underlying job and housing growth needed to justify a greater inventory of retail product. While all retail developers in Houston face similar headwinds in terms of costs of capital and construction materials/labor, as well as elevated tenant improvement (TI) costs and hefty required return thresholds from investors, it’s difficult to single out any one of those factors as most responsible for the dearth of new retail development. Some issues will be felt more acutely in some submarkets than others. Certain companies may have better connections and capital situations such that they can circumvent some of the uncontrollables. But no matter the combination of barrier-to-entry factors, the net result is the same: a market that cannot adequately supply retail product to meet demand.

Atlanta Beltline Issues RFP for Mixed-Use Development on Southside Trail

by John Nelson

ATLANTA — Atlanta Beltline has issued a request for proposals (RFP) for new mixed-use development on a site along the Beltline’s Southside Trail. The 13.7-acre site is located at 356 University Ave. near the city’s historic Pittsburgh neighborhood that the Beltline purchased in 2023. Atlanta Beltline met with more than two dozen community groups since April 2024 to discuss future plans for the site. Based on the community feedback and the Beltline’s newly completed master plan, the RFP is seeking a mix of market-rate and affordable housing, as well as a mix of commercial and industrial uses. More specifically, the RFP calls for at least 30 percent of residential units reserved as permanently affordable (10 percent at or below 80 percent AMI, 20 percent at or below 50 percent AMI); a minimum of 30 percent of total floor area dedicated to light-industrial use; affordable commercial space (at least 20 percent at rents 30 percent below market for more than 10 years); a partnership with an arts, cultural or community organization for onsite programming; and accessible green spaces, ADA pathways and Beltline connectivity. To date, the Beltline has acquired nearly 90 acres preserved for residential and commercial affordability for both residents …

Richmond’s Mixed-Use Boom Fuels the City’s Retail Market

by John Nelson

The Richmond retail market has maintained strong fundamentals as the city’s diverse economic base and solid residential growth continue to fuel a historically low vacancy rate.  Demand is very strong from a variety of uses, ranging from soft goods and restaurants to entertainment and personal services such as med spas and boutique fitness. The coffee segment, long dominated by Starbucks Coffee, has seen a number of new competitors enter the market. Dunkin’ has been on a strong growth cycle, and more recently Dutch Bros Coffee, Scooters Coffee, Foxtail Coffee and PJs Coffee have been actively looking for sites. 7 Brew has been particularly active, opening two new stores and filling their pipeline with additional sites.   However, the real story in Richmond is the number of mixed-use projects that are in the planning stages or have broken ground, with virtually all of them anchored by a grocery store.  In Chesterfield County, the first phase of development for Springline at District 60 is near completion. Located at the intersection of Midlothian Turnpike and Chippenham Parkway, work was recently completed on a new 150,000-square-foot office building anchored by Timmons Group, while the 298-unit apartment building, The James at Springline, is nearing completion. …

SCHAUMBURG, ILL. — UrbanStreet Group has broken ground on a 30-acre retail district at Veridian in the Chicago suburb of Schaumburg. The first phase of the district is expected to open in 2027 for apartments; retail turnover is slated for fall 2026. The Veridian project involves the transformation of the former Motorola campus. The first phase of the retail district will include 100,000 square feet of walkable retail and international cuisine, anchored by a 26,000-square-foot The Fresh Market grocery store along with 321 apartments and year-round community programming. At full build-out, the district will include more than 200,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space and more than 600 apartment units, adding to the 225-acre Veridian site that is already home to Topgolf; corporate users such as The Boler Co., Zurich North America, Motorola Solutions and DR Horton; and multiple residential communities.
