Trinity Town Center was supposed to be a thriving shopping center and something of which the town could be proud. The Mediterranean design of the center is combined with a traditional American Main Street feel to create something unique. It once had the potential to be a very attractive place to work and shop.
However, several years down the line it has still not finished and is now something of an eyesore for local residents. All of the units that have been completed are empty and there is now graffiti and broken windows all over the complex. Residents believe that it is an area that could really bring the community together; if only it were able to be completed. The state of the economy and bad decisions by the management company have been blamed for the site not ever being completed.
Now that the site is up for auction, it is hoped that it can get the investment that it so desperately needs. There have been previous attempts to bring in tenants, but none of these attempts have come to a resolve. The company that previously owned the complex is now bankrupt. Harris Auctions believe that a potential investor could get a great deal at auction. Residents hope that this means there will be plenty of interest in the complex and that a new buyer can be found.
The successful bidder will still have the plans that are already in place that allow it to be used for retail, restaurants and office space. There are rumors that it could also be used as a satellite campus for a local college. Whatever the buyers decide to do with the Town Center, it will certainly be an improvement on what it is now. Residents also hope that it could have a positive effect on local housing values.
