Hawthorn 1.0 |
Description: Center court of Hawthorn Center in Vernon Hills, Illinois. Recorded while photo-documenting the mall in the summer of 2019, before a multi-phase redevelopment known as "Hawthorn 2.0" kicked off. Within a few weeks, this center court was gutted and rebuilt with new ceilings, floors, seating, tree sculptures, interactive lighting, public art installations, and a coffee and wine bar. The renovated (and much improved) center court was complete by the 2019 Holiday season. Many of the stores shown have since vacated as redevelopment of the mall progresses -- about 30% of the mall stands to be torn down to accommodate a second residential development on the property. -- JRP-DMC 2023 www.jonrev.com linktr.ee/jonrev
