Andares
Andares is a retail-led mixed-use project comprising a linear, 197-store shopping center; nine apartment towers; two office buildings; and plans for a luxury hotel. Located in Zapopan, a northwest suburb of Guadalajara—Mexico’s second-largest city—Andares is one of the largest shopping centers in western Mexico and represents the largest private investment in the country in 2009. Developed by Desarrolladora Mexicana de Inmuebles, S.A., the $320 million development mixes luxury retail with residences and office space amid more than two hectares (5 ac) of open spaces, plazas, water mirrors, and gardens.
