SEATTLE—At an event held at Simon’s Northgate community on Monday, representatives of the group that is looking to establish the next National Hockey League franchise in Seattle announced that it will locate its corporate headquarters and training center at Northgate. The Indianapolis-based retail REIT is embarking on a major redevelopment of the Northgate community into a major mixed-use project.

“We are thrilled to collaborate with NHL Seattle and make their training center and corporate headquarters a key piece of Northgate’s transformation from a traditional regional shopping mall into a world class transit-oriented mixed-use center,” said Michael E. McCarty, COO of Simon Malls. “The transformation of Northgate is a prime example of our ability to create compelling ways for consumers to live, work, play, stay, shop, and now skate at their favorite Simon destination.”
