CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, Ohio — Cleveland Heights officials are cheering a breakthrough at Severance Town Center , a sprawling shopping center that’s been decaying for more than a decade.
“If we work at this together, I’m super confident that we can get something done,” said Ryan Porter, MPACT’s managing partner. “It’s gonna take time. And people will have to be patient. But I believe that, together, we can make some great things happen.” But there won’t be shovels in the ground anytime soon. And it’s too early to say what a remade Severance might look like."Everybody has an opinion of Namdar,” he added. “Everybody in Cleveland Heights generally has a negative opinion of Namdar. And that’s based on their business model. Their business model is one that, from our perspective, does very little to advance community in Cleveland Heights.
Severance would be the company’s first mall makeover. Porter said the company is working with Namdar on one other project, involving a smaller retail center on Long Island.
