Developers across the Bay Area are targeting unlikely locations to build walkable new communities: shopping malls.
Shopping center operators are teaming up with real estate companies on redeveloping these sprawling suburban sites with housing, restaurants, offices, hotels and event space.
In the Bay Area, mixed-use residential communities have been proposed or approved at the Shops at Hilltop in Richmond, Newark’s NewPark Mall, Fremont’s The Hub and Westlake Shopping Center in Daly City.
