The same company that is proposing to turn Metro North into the Streets at Barry Towne is going to build the Streets at Shoal Creek.  The 800k shopping center, much like Zona Rosa will go in at 152 and Shoal Creek Parkway.

A Colorado company is considering development of an 850,000-square-foot lifestyle center in Missouri.

The project by Alberta Development Partners LLC, based in Greenwood Village, would be on 80 acres in the 1,700-acre Shoal Creek Valley, a planned community outside of Kansas City. The center would be called The Streets at Shoal Creek.

"There's a huge potential for retail here," said Steve Gilliland, Shoal Creek's development manager. "When The Streets goes in, it's going to be an economic engine of the Northland. And I also envision The Streets being a destination. I believe it's going to draw people from all over the metro just because of its 'feel.'"

Alberta has a contract on the land and is in its due diligence period, said Doug Holmberg, managing director of the land group for Zion Securities Corp., which owns the property.

In the Denver area, Alberta is behind the redevelopment of the former Southglenn Mall into The Streets at SouthGlenn. The company also manages the Southlands mixed-use retail project in Aurora at the intersection of E-470 and Smoky Hill Road.

They say they are still planning on doing something with Metro North, but I have my doubts that they do both.
