Phillips Place, the mixed-used shopping plaza in SouthPark, has a new owner. One who’s very familiar with the neighborhood.
Simon Property Group completed its purchase of Phillips Place, Simon announced Tuesday in a news release. It’s unclear how much the real estate investment firm paid for the site.
The acquisition adds more SouthPark property to Simon’s belt.
Simon owns SouthPark Mall, Charlotte’s largest shopping center. And in 2023, Simon purchased Hampton Inn & Suites at Phillips Place for $42 million. The 124-room hotel is steps away from SouthPark Mall.
Simon also owns Concord Mills and Charlotte Premium Outlets in Charlotte’s Steele Creek area.
It’s unclear what Simon’s plans are for Phillips Place. A spokesperson for the mall could not immediately be reached for comment.
But according to the news release, Simon will eventually “elevate” the site with possibly new shops and “ongoing investments.”
