THE MERCHANDISING

• Oakwood Center is located in Gretna, LA, about 5 minutes from downtown New Orleans. It is the only regional enclosed mall on the New Orleans’ West Bank, with great access to select neighborhoods located on the East Bank.
• Current department stores include a completely remodeled and upscaled Dillard’s, JCPenney and Sears.
• Oakwood Center offers exciting shopping choices for the whole family with Forever 21, Old Navy, Bath and Body Works, Charlotte Russe, American Eagle, New York & Company, Children’s Place, Victoria’s Secret, Aldo, Aeropostale, Café DuMonde, Chick-fil-A plus the food court and family restroom.

• As national and local retailers look to expand, Oakwood Center is positioned as a fresh and exciting environment for them to call home.
• The continued growth of New Orleans’ West Bank creates added sales potential.
• In addition, secondary markets that access Oakwood Center from across the river are increasingly more accustomed to shopping the West Bank.
• Under construction on the Westbank is the new Federal City, a project that offers an approach that could make it a national model for the future configuration and operation of small to mid-sized Department of Defense installations, the decommissioning of military installations and large-scale urban development. When fully developed Federal City is expected to grow from providing 2,000 military jobs (Phase I) to 10,000 federal and civilian jobs in later phases.
