Past Projects

Collier Town Square, Washington, PA - Gardens Group (formerly Praxis Resources) completed the acquisition, entitlement, development, construction, leasing, and zoning/planning for the $20 million dollar, 90,000 SF Collier Town Square in 2004. Notable tenants included Starbucks, Hollywood Video, Coldstone Creamery, The UPS Store, Moe's Southwest Grill, Supercuts, The Pittsburgh Bottle Shop, and similar smaller space tenants. The development was to be complemented by a 550,000 SF lifestyle center, Neville Crossing, on property that Praxis had under contract nearby with tenant commitments in place with Target & Whole Foods Market. Despite municipal support for the project, the Neville Crossing project could not move forward under the weight of the 2008 "great recession". (Praxis changed its name to Gardens Group in 2016).

Tanger Outlet Center, Washington, PA - Praxis identified, contracted and entitled a 360-acre site in Washington, PA to allow broad commercial development, and subsequently sold 65 acres. Praxis enlisted the support of then Pennsylvania Governor, Ed Rendell, to gain zoning and traffic approvals as well as a $20 million State-financed TIFF (tax increment financing) to move the project move forward. Praxis teamed with Tanger Outlets, one of the world's leading outlet developers, to deliver a first-class outlet mall to complement the new and expanded Meadows Racetrack & Casino, located nearby. Praxis also was able to lure away from the proposed "Pittsburgh Mills" mall, a proposed 30-acre Bass Pro Shop, adjacent to Tanger Outlets, again with the help of Governor Ed Rendell and a $15 million TIFF.
