Work Progressing At Former Crown Center Mall

North Franklin Township Supervisor tells WJPA news that the first phase of the construction work at the former Washington Crown Center Mall is pretty much finished and crews next week, are preparing to move into phase two.  Sabot says the retail stores that are there will remain open, but starting Monday, there will be no more walking allowed.  Sabot says they are hoping the work will be completed in May or June and then, he says, he’ll be making a big announcement regarding new retail outlets for the facility.  In September 2025, PREP Funds, based in Cleveland, and Los Angeles-based Industrial Realty Group acquired the mall and renamed it Franklin Crossroads Park.
