Allen Premium Outlets is expanding. The shopping center is adding space for 30 more stores and has purchased 22 acres adjoining acres to add additional parking and pads for restaurants and a hotel.
The plan is to first add 1,300 new parking spaces on the new land north of the property before it starts construction of new stores in the interior of the center.
About 122,000 additional square feet of retail space will be built in the middle of the center next to the existing Neiman Marcus Last Call.
