Our Property Spotlight continues with a look at what's coming soon to Scottsdale Quarter in Scottsdale, Arizona. As part of a major redevelopment, Scottsdale Quarter is adding to their prestigious selection of dining, entertainment and retail offerings. This week, Scottsdale Quarter will welcome Ariat International, which specializes in high-quality equestrian apparel, footwear, and accessories. This will be Ariat's first Arizona location. The French-inspired restaurant Sweet Paris Crêperie & Café will also make its Arizona debut when it opens this fall at Scottsdale Quarter. Everything is made from scratch, from crepes to sauces. Williams-Sonoma, Inc. will also open this fall, offering high-quality kitchenware, cookware, and home furnishings.

Our property teams love to give back to the communities they serve. The Mesa Mall team recently spent an afternoon volunteering at the Food Bank of the Rockies Distribution Center in Grand Junction, Colorado. They cut and cored 800 pounds of apples and they plan to volunteer there again. Thank you, Mesa Mall team, for using your Volunteer Time Off to make a difference in your community!
