Service Merchandise space at Catalina Centre
The occupation of the former Service Merchandise space will include modifications
to the building shell required for retail and service operations and services to be
provided Best Buy will be providing its customers in this market. The shell
modifications are to include relocating and redesign of the entry, installation of new
tenant signage, adding vehicle access to automobile electronic equipment
installation bays, and general internal remodeling of the space Materials and colors
