Providence had an office in Lloyd Center where the old movie in-mall movie theater was located. I wasn't aware of any Providence office at Mall 205.SamSpade wrote: ↑March 28th, 2022, 11:18 am Hoping that bringing this thread up does *NOT* cause it to stray off topic again.
Here is a local media report about how the new owners of Marketplace 205 tried to boot tenants with 2-week notice, but then relented and gave until the end of March.

I'm not sure what happened to Providence's large office space they had in the center, perhaps that relocated as well (or went 100% remote). I haven't been over there in some time.
I'm not surprised they found two big box stores to move in. While retail vacancies are up in the Portland market. Well located 40,000+ Sq ft. are hard to find due to the tight urban growth boundary that has always made it challenging for large for.at retailers to find space.
