  • Simon Property Group and Park Place Entertainment Execute Ground Lease for Major Expansion of the Forum Shops at Caesars
    Simon Property Group and Park Place Entertainment Execute Ground Lease for Major Expansion of The Forum Shops at Caesars February 25, 2003 Construction Underway with Completion Scheduled for Fall 2004 LAS VEGAS, Feb 25, 2003 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Simon Property Group, Inc. (NYSE: SPG) and Park Place Entertainment Corporation (NYSE: PPE), parent company of Caesars Palace, today announced that the two parties have executed a ground lease for prized property fronting Las Vegas Blvd on the Las Vegas Strip. This lease execution allows for commencement of construction on the expansion of The Forum Shops at Caesars, Las Vegas' premier retail, dining and entertainment destination and the most successful shopping venue in the country. The 175,000-square-foot, three-level expansion will extend from the existing retail, dining and entertainment icon to the famed Las Vegas Strip. The additional array of upscale specialty retail tenants will further expand The Forum Shops' selection of luxury brand merchandise. Several new restaurants also will further broaden its appeal as the city's premier venue for an exclusive fine dining experience. The classic Roman architecture of the expansion, combined with a grand pedestrian plaza on Las Vegas Boulevard, will create a signature entrance to The Forum Shops. Construction on the expansion began immediately upon the lease signing with completion scheduled for the fall of 2004. "From the day The Forum Shops opened in 1992, its momentum has never waned," said David Simon, chief executive officer of Simon Property Group. "This is undisputedly the most valuable retail real estate in Las Vegas, and this newest expansion provides the opportunity to further solidify The Forum Shops' position as one of the country's premier shopping and entertainment destinations for both domestic and international visitors." Pent-up demand for space at The Forum Shops has generated a waiting list of world-class retailers and restaurants.
