Great Lakes Crossings now offically an outlet center.

Great Lakes Crossing in Auburn Hills has a new name and mission as it moves away from entertainment and more toward brand-name discounts and dining, said Bill Taubman, chief operating officer of the mall’s owner.
And Great Lakes Crossing Outlets – at 1.4 million square feet – will be the largest outlet center in Michigan with 185 dining and retail options including 10 new stores expected to open for the celebration weekend Oct. 9-11.

New stores include Lord & Taylor Outlet, Hugo Boss Factory Store, Talbots Outlet, Movado Company Store, Polo Ralph Lauren Factory Store, Wilsons Leather Outlet, Lacoste Outlet, aerie outlet by American Eagle and Swim ‘n Sport Outlet.

Art Van Furniture plans to open a 43,000-square-foot store at the mall on Nov. 26.

The mall’s sales have been growing at twice the rate of Taubman Centers' other malls.

“It’s all about merchandising,” Taubman said on a walk-through of the mall on today. “We haven’t stopped signing tenants. There are more to come.”
