Lakeside Mall to be redeveloped into a billon-dollar mixed use development

City leaders in Sterling Heights have voted 5 to 2 to approve a deal to turn Lakeside Mall into a billion-dollar mixed-use retail, office, and residential space. It’s a trend that’s been happening for years now and something we’ve seen happen with the Northland Mall in Southfield, the Eastland Mall in Harper Woods, and Summit Place in Waterford. The irreversible decline of shopping malls around the country was one of the catalysts for this decision. “When we were going through our vision 2030 process we all saw the writing on the wall,” Sterling Heights City Manager Mark Vanderpool said.
