Ellisburg Shopping Center

Project: Ellisburg Shopping Center
Client: Federal Realty

Ellisburg Shopping Center, located in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, is an existing retail center with a long history in the community. Boasting a variety of shops, restaurants and a Whole Foods grocery store the project continues to be a major destination for the residents of adjacent neighborhoods.

One major goal of the proposed canopy façade renovation was to increase the project visibility from the surrounding highways. The solution was to develop a collection of strong roof forms that would stand out against the skyline and attract more shoppers and diners.

The use of contemporary forms and materials highlight the individual retail offerings and provides the visitor with a varied and exciting mix of visual statements. Unique canopies, awnings and abundant landscaping help to define smaller gathering spaces and enhance the overall shopping experience.

Ellisburg Shopping Center in Cherry Hill, New Jersey is a retail center with a long history in the community. Boasting a variety of shops, restaurants and a Whole Foods grocery store the project continues to be a major destination for the residents of adjacent neighborhoods.

The proposed pad restaurant required the removal of a gas station and extensive site work. The design of the new building massing, the varied material palette and the trellised outdoor dining patio will enliven the street edge. The new restaurant will enhance the center and draw visitors to the project by providing additional food and beverage offerings.

The Shops at Riverside – AMC Addition

Project: The Shops at Riverside - AMC Addition
Client: Simon Property Group

The Shops at Riverside is an upscale , enclosed shopping center in Hackensack, N.J. first opened in 1977. With the closing and take-back of a three-level Saks Fifth Avenue department store, JP2 was retained to fully convert the building into shops, restaurants, and a new flagship luxury AMC multi-screen theater. The 1,100-seat theater facility occupies the upper level of the former department store building. The AMC required demolition and reconstruction of the upper floor with the roof at a higher level to accommodate the theater stadium seating. The entire building was stripped to a structural frame and brought up to current requirements for life safety. JP2 worked closely with AMC to integrate their requirements for projection mezzanines, acoustics, and other vital aspect essential to their new luxury cinema offering while still allowing restaurant and retail tenants including Cheesecake Factory and Barnes & Noble to occupy the lower level.
