The Lewis Crossing shopping center development officially is under construction in Conway.
Collett & Associates, which is developing the 441,871-SF, $65 million project, announced Wednesday that work was underway at the site, located at the southeast corner of Interstate 40 and Dave Ward Drive.
The development, expected to open in the fall of 2016, will anchored by Sam’s Club, Academy Sports, Ross Dress For Less, Bed Bath & Beyond, Michaels Arts and Crafts, Ulta, Petco, Dollar Tree, Aspen Dental, AT&T and David’s Burgers.
Other tenants lined up include an Ulta beauty products store and five clothing boutiques: Altar’d State, Loft, Jos. A. Banks, Chico’s and Carter’s.
Arkansas Business reported in March that the 135,500-SF Sam’s Club expects to open early next year. In May, the Conway city council approved site rezoning from industrial to commercial.
Collett & Associates is based in Charlotte, North Carolina. Roger Cole of Elrod Real Estate of Little Rock is serving as the local leasing agent for Lewis Crossing, and Garrett Excavating of Hot Springs is performing all site improvements.
