LAS VEGAS, NV –  Nadel Architecture + Planning, Las Vegas office announces the completion of its expansion to the Showcase Mall, a 481,400 square-foot retail and entertainment destination owned by Gindi Capital and located on the world famous Las Vegas Strip.

 The 155,000 square-foot, three-story Phase 4 expansion, which opened in May after a slight delay due to the pandemic, includes the addition of a 50,000 square-foot Burlington store and a 20,000 square-foot Target.

 Gindi Capital is planning to add a rooftop bar and restaurant 75 feet above street level, offering views of the Strip.

The project represents the potential for a strong retail recovery on the Las Vegas Strip – an area whose economy is largely dependent on tourism – once the COVID-19 pandemic subsides, according to Greg Lyon, chairman and principal for Nadel.

 “As a leading L.A.-based architectural and design firm for the last 47 years, Nadel has witnessed several real estate and economic cycles impact the Western U.S.,” says Lyon.

 “We have seen the renaissance of the retail sector, in particular, time and again as it has faced down numerous challenges.

 "While the COVID-19 pandemic has had an unprecedented impact on all of commercial real estate, we anticipate a robust rebound beginning in 2021 as a safe and viable vaccine becomes widely available and consumers feel comfortable about returning to shopping centers once more.

 "The completion of this project is testament to stakeholders’ confidence in the potential of the Las Vegas market and the retail sector as we emerge from this health and financial and crisis.”

 Nadel’s design of the fourth phase of Showcase Mall, a center that was originally constructed in 1996 and has experienced several additions over the years, is distinguishable for several reasons including the construction of a basement level and escalators to access the Burlington store on that level, elevators that lead to a unique lobby for each tenant, and an all-glass front façade, according to Mark Mikelson, principal with Nadel and lead architect on the expansion project.

 “It is particularly unusual on the West Coast to see a retailer occupying basement spaces, which affords this new space extra appeal for shoppers and visitors on the Strip,” says Mikelson.
