BATON ROUGE - Plans to demolish and replace the nearly-shuttered Cortana Mall with a distribution center of a developer with close ties to Amazon, have one more hurdle left to clear.
The East Baton Rouge Planning Commission on Monday approved plans for the 2.8 million square foot warehouse, proposed by developer Seefried Industrial Properties, Inc. You had a dying mall, and now it s going to be, hopefully, a thriving employment hub, which really helps to stabilize the area, Mathew Laborde of Elifin Realty said.
