Contessa Gallery is in the process of moving from Legacy Village to an interior space at Eton formerly home to Mattlin-Hyde Piano Co. Worth pointing out that Contessa has been at Legacy since the center opened in 2003.

Eton Chagrin Boulevard update: Chopt Creative Salad Co. opening first Cleveland location in former Fidelity space in 2025. https://www.clevescene.com/food-drink/chopt-creative-salad-co-to-open-first-ohio-location-at-eton-chagrin-blvd-45086447 Fiamma by Mendel looking to open in November. Construction has been progressing nicely over the last month. Exterior signage went up last week. https://www.clevelandjewishnews.com/features/nosh/fiamma-by-mendel-eyes-november-opening/article_e3ed0412-96fe-11ef-be0f-d38e9e6f55c8.html A combination Cold Stone Creamery/Planet Smoothie opening in the former Allen Edmonds space in 2025. First Cleveland Planet Smoothie location. If I recall correctly, Cold Stone's first Northeast Ohio was at Eton back in ~2003. https://www.facebook.com/EtonChagrin/photos/cold-stone-creamery-planet-smoothie-are-coming-together-at-eton-chagrin-blvd-in-/937756821717394/?_rdr

The North Face at Eton is closing after 15 years on August 14th, according to a sign in front of the store. The outlet at Aurora Farms is not affected.

Top of the Hill's first retail tenant has a "coming soon" sign posted outside: UH Urgent Care.

Too small. Woodling only holds 3,000 people. The Charge were averaging 3,383 per game last season.

Surprised to hear that Jones Day is looking for new office space.

Mabel's has been closed because many of their staff members have helped get Heritage up and running. Same ownership group I believe. My guess is that Stark is being patient with Mabel's.

Maybe it's a typo and Free People is moving from Eton to join FP Movement.

Nice article on Heritage Steak & Whiskey: https://www.clevescene.com/food-drink/first-look-heritage-steak-and-whiskey-opening-at-eton-on-friday-november-24-43131789

Hearing that Heritage Steak & Whiskey at Eton will open "on or around" Black Friday. No replacement lined up yet for Mitchell's, but not surprising since it is a large space (had multiple party/meeting rooms, two dining rooms, and a bar). My colleagues and I had a meeting in the "Captain's Quarters" party room two weeks before they closed. So by spring 2024, two of the four larger vacant restaurant spaces should be occupied once again (Agave & Rye and Heritage).

Beachwood Place update: Sunglass Hut moved into a nearby, larger storefront formerly occupied by Addicted Accessories, which itself moved to the lone vacant second floor space in the Saks wing Nuevo Modern Mexican is moving into the last vacant food court space (anticipated November/December opening) Nordstrom parking garage exterior work is complete La Place parking garage renovation is complete and fully reopened for the first time in two years Overall, it should be another busy holiday season for the mall.

My brother talked to one of the bridge workers, and they are shooting for "end of September."

Paladar just permanently closed today at Eton. I could also see Agave & Rye landing in their space: https://www.clevescene.com/food-drink/paladar-latin-kitchen-in-woodmere-has-closed-after-16-years-42734072 Also, construction continues at a snail's pace on Heritage, but it appears almost done.

Nice to have another Aerie on the east side (only other one is at Aurora Farms). This and OFFLINE will both do well at Pinecrest.

Site prep has begun in the Pinecrest parking lot near REI and West Elm. According to the Orange Village Planning & Zoning minutes, this will be a freestanding Fidelity Investments location. It will relocate from Eton to Pinecrest. Fidelity also has a small office space on the second floor of Eton Tower, which I assume will also be moving. Crocker Park has a very visible freestanding Fidelity location, so this move makes sense (although it's interesting that both Fidelity and Charles Schwab will now be next to one another). Interested to see what new tenant will take its place at Eton. It's in a prime location and Fidelity has been there forever. ErieBank is also now open at Eton West End.
