Energizing an
Aging Center: Mt. Shasta Mall, Redding
Architect: MCG Architects
General Contractor: Roebbelen Contracting
The clients objective for this tired center was clear:
create a new image would draw people to this location as a
destination resort, rather than having them drive by on their
way to newer, more innovative neighboring centers.
MCG achieved these goals by energizing the mall with a major
renovation plan and identity program that added a creative
ambience.
In-line shops and pedestrian corridors were replaced with
a new curvilinear design, pedestrian living rooms and festiveplazas.
A new food court and central court were also added.
The malls major tenants received a facaded modernization,
while new mall entries were designed, emphasizing the fluid
forms of the architectural detailing and graphic programs.
The success of this program can be attributed to the owners
commitment to detail and form.
MCG exceeded client goals by re-inventing this shopping experience
through multiple design layers. Architecture, interior furnishings
and graphics re-established the mall as a unique destination
resort for shopping and community gatherings.
Quotable:
Since the remodel, this center has turned into a
true destination as we continue to fill vacant space with
name-brand retailers. Its absolutely phenomenal.
