But in many instances, the draw is entirely by design. It’s an intentional, strategic urban planning tactic that’s been around for decades, and it’s called placemaking. What Is Placemaking?The concept of placemaking has been around since the 1960s thanks to urban planning pioneers and was bolstered in the 1990s by the smart growth agenda of organizations like the Urban Land Institute. In modern parlance across the state, it’s not much different. Put simply, placemaking is about creating a special place where people want to be.

The Metrocenter Mall opened its doors in 1973 and closed in 2020. The two-story, 140,000-square-foot mall is situated on 312 acres on the city’s northwest side. Plans for the redevelopment include more than 2,600 apartment units, as well as 100,000 square feet of retail space. The demolition process has commenced with the destruction of the former Dillard’s and U-Haul buildings. Following a survey and analysis of the materials inside the building to ensure the protection of the public, Los Angeles-based Resource Environmental Inc. will abate and remove the asbestos from the building, then proceed with the demolition of the property.
