Lakeridge Village’s makeover will be unveiled early this month, if all goes according to plan.
SHOP Development is overseeing the $26-million renovation, and the City of Dallas offered about $4 million in economic incentives through the Skillman Corridor TIF District. Here’s what you need to know about the 90,476-square-foot development’s overhaul.[/vc_column_text][vc_text_separator title=”THE BASICS” border_width=”3″][vc_column_text]The shopping center was constructed in the late 1960s. Its previous owners were based in San Jose, California, and the shopping center has been half-occupied for several years. SHOP Development purchased the center in 2017. At a Lake Highlands Chamber of Commerce Forum, SHOP vice president Buck Wheeler said the company’s goal is to create a “welcoming, walkable environment that isn’t a one-stop shop.”
