Apple, Tesla, lululemon and Sephora trade at University Park Mall alongside Hoosier Cuts, Mystic Crow Apothecary, The Blanket Hog and The South Bend Chocolate Company. That range, national brands beside Indiana-rooted and local concepts, is the defining feature of the tenancy at 6501 N Grape Road in Mishawaka.
Simon describes the property as a super-regional center with more than 120 specialty shops serving the South Bend and Mishawaka metropolitan area, anchored by Macy’s, JCPenney and Barnes and Noble. Simon separately lists Macy’s Backstage and Macy’s Furniture Gallery, plus JCPenney Beauty, Home Store, Portraits and Salon, creating six additional sub-format entries around the two anchors. The operator places the center minutes from South Bend, Notre Dame, Granger, Elkhart and Goshen in Indiana and from Niles, Buchanan and Dowagiac in Michigan, a catchment that crosses the state line.
Nationally the mix is the standard super-regional set: Hollister Co., American Eagle, Buckle, Express, Windsor, Tillys, Hot Topic, Zumiez and Victoria’s Secret, with Foot Locker, Champs Sports, Journeys and Vans across footwear. Jewelry runs across national and independent operators alike, including Jared Jewelers, Kay Jewelers, Pandora and Lovisa alongside Athens Jewelers, Taj Jewelers and Jewelry Express.
Local operators and service businesses form a second layer of the mix. Bella Spa, Ora Sempre Spa, Le Nails, Sola Salons, Massage Envy Spa, Hoosier Cuts and Dr Garcia and Associates cover personal care and health, while 2TechPoint, Talk N Fix and Wireless ToyBox handle device repair. Food ranges from Chick-fil-A and Five Guys to K Pot Korean BBQ and Hot Pot, Mango Thai, Tako Mexican Grill, La Patrona and Pappas Smokehouse and Grill. Simon lists a number of tenants with location qualifiers such as at Macy’s or second location, so one brand can hold more than one unit here.
