This report, prepared for the St. Tammany Economic Development Corporation, analyzes redevelopment opportunities for the Northshore Square Mall site. It summarizes key findings from private-sector market soundings and public community engagement, identifying potential uses such as an Event Center, Distribution/Logistics Center, Light Manufacturing, and a Logistics + Retail Hub. The report evaluates the viability of these options based on their economic impact, job creation, tax revenue generation, and community benefit, providing recommendations and next steps for the site's repurposing to stimulate the local economy and diversify the tax base.
