Arrowstreet has enjoyed a long-standing collaboration with Simon Property Group, and one of their most dynamic properties continues to bring us back: Northshore Mall in Peabody, Massachusetts.

In this recent update, we helped reposition a former Sears anchor into a new Life Time Fitness pad site and created a fully reimagined, exterior-facing retail and dining zone featuring L.L.Bean, Arhaus, and other national brands.

With the demolition of the Sears building, the site opened up to welcome new food and beverage tenants like Big Chicken and Honeygrow, and allowed for the development of a brand-new mall entrance. Our design introduced a double-height, all-glass storefront that draws natural light deep into the mall concourse — creating a bright, modern arrival experience that signals Northshore’s evolution into a next-generation retail destination.

The transformation reorients the mall toward the community, shifting its identity from inward-facing shopping center to an outward-looking lifestyle environment. Anchored by dining and high-performance retail, the new zone creates a stronger connection between the mall and its surroundings.
