Internationally acclaimed fashion brand, J.Crew Mercantile will be setting up shop at Park Road Shopping Center.
This is coming off the desk of one of America’s leading real estate developer, EDENS.
The proposed storefront will be open to the public in the first quarter of 2016, and will be next to Blackhawk Hardware in the shopping center.
J.Crew Mercantile is the standalone shopping poster child of J.Crew, launched early last year to boost the brand’s signature style through the quickly modernizing shopping concept. At the moment, only two J.Crew Mercantile locations are on the map, and it will be joining other growing fashion brands like Julie’s and Onward Reserve at Park Road.
EDENS operates Park Road, and over the years have brought on a number of changes at Park Road Shopping Center. Lyle Darnall, MD at EDENS, believes J.Crew Mercantile is a major step forward in increasing the profile of the shopping center for other big retailer names as well as providing the Charlotte market with top-grade shopping experience.
EDENS also owns and manages other shopping centers including Atherton Mill, Myers Park, and Kenilworth Commons in Charlotte.
