Four new retailers and two new restaurants join the mix, bringing total dining options to eleven
RENTON, Wash. – September 20, 2010 – Despite the current economic trends, The Landing in Renton has continued to see sales and leasing success. Many retailers and restaurants at The Landing have experienced double digit sales growth every month in 2010 over 2009 giving confidence to new retailers to move to the South Lake Washington’s most dynamic new shopping and dining destination.
Continuing to build upon the successful mix of small, creative boutiques, bustling, brand-name shops, cozy cafés, restaurants, salons and spas that currently call the urban village home, The Landing in Renton is pleased to announce that starting as soon as next month, six new shopping and dining options will be joining the family-friendly pedestrian center. From national names including Dick’s Sporting Goods and Marshall’s; to local brands Eyes on The Landing and Creative Mom Toys; to two restaurants Mucho Burrito and Fresh Way Pizza, The Landing continues to provide variety and convenience to the Renton community.
National Brand Names See Big Opportunity at The Landing

A leader in specialty sports and fitness products, Dick’s Sporting Goods will continue to provide dedicated service to Renton’s athletes and outdoor enthusiasts. Planned to open in the former Joe’s location at The Landing, Dick’s will offer the finest quality products at competitive prices.
