Everywhere you turn there is new commercial and residential building going on. Big, Big BIG projects. It will soon be bigger than Gulf Shores and Destin combined with room for development along front beach, middle beach, and back beach roads. Not to mention all the land north of back beach road to the bay and up Hwy 79 to I-10 and along Hwy 20, and the north bay road. No wonder St. Joe wants an airport.

ps - The new Target at Pier Park is about 1/2 built.

Simon Properties have their headquarters here in Indianapolis. They build upscale malls. The Circle Center downtown--which contributed enormously to downtown's revitalization--was built by them. They're very good corporate citizens and contribute to many organizations here in Indy. And they manage their malls very well. The landscaping is always beautiful and the buildings are well-maintained. If Panama City had to have a new shopping complex, they were lucky that Simon got involved.

Well it was a little shorter a few months ago. Just when I thought it was over more projects are being announced. I guess Aquatica didn't stop the enthusiam.

Updated info from the PCB Chamber of Commerce says the following businesses are slated for Pier Park: Target, Old Navy, Dillards, Borders, Ron Jon, Splitsville (upscale bowling/entertainment venue), Belks, Dick's Sporting Goods, along with other anchor stores not yet named. I have a map but it's in .tif format and I'm not sure if I can attach that.

In today's News-Herald, two of Mrs.Jones' Pier Park retailers were named: Old Navy and Ron Jon, along with Panera Bread and Starbuck's.
Target is supposed to open in October. The theater is supposed to be a 16-screen 3,000 seater. Restaurants so far: Back Porch Seafood House and Reggie J's Island Grill, more to be named later.
