WAYNE, PA—Regency Centers will be enhancing the shopping experience at Gateway Shopping Center, Regency's premier shopping center in the Philadelphia market, beginning in late July.

“There are a lot of exciting changes happening in this market and we are proud to say that we are helping to bring about that change to our retailers and our community,” says John Hricko, vice president and regional officer for Regency Centers. “The changes we're making at Gateway are focused on enhancing the things people already love about the center, with a few new improvements.”

Plans call for improvements to the center's aesthetics, including raised architectural features and a modern and vibrant color scheme. The center's landscape design, parking lot lighting, and signage will also be upgraded.

Gateway Shopping Center is located in Wayne, PA, northwest of Philadelphia and situated on heavily trafficked State Highway 202, with close proximity to the 2.9 million sq. ft. super regional King of Prussia Mall.

“This is a dynamic area with a diverse population,” says Hricko. “Not only do we strive to be active members of this community as people, but also as a property. This means continuing to evolve with our customers' wants and needs from all angles.”

Surrounded by a robust office community contributing to a workplace population over 78,000 within a 3-mile trade area, the center occupies 214,212 sq. ft. and includes national retailers like Trader Joe's, TJMaxx, Staples, Starbucks, Panera, and MOD Pizza.

Construction is estimated to last through late fall 2015.
