Olive Branch aldermen approve mixed-use development with retail, lofts
Elected officials also accept bid for new tornado sirens
Developer Mike Bailey is putting together two parcels to create a mixed-use development called Oak Park Town Center. The site at Goodman and Hacks Cross roads includes a 60-plus acre spot that was approved for a traditional shopping center in 2006. The developer's new vision puts one or more big-box stores in the center of the site, surrounded by outparcels. Off the main roads, the plan calls for loft apartments above retail stores.
