History
[edit]The construction of the Plejada Shopping Centre began on 27.02.2001 on the wasteland of the formerBuczek Steelworks (formerly Huta Katarzyna), where the famous slag heap of the Katarzyna Steelworks was located until the 1980s, what is an example of successful recultivation of industrial areas[1][4] The construction was completed on 13.11.2001.[6] The main investors were: the Polish branch of the Danish company Agat Ejendomme and polish subsidiary of Ahold. The construction cost about US$40 million (over PLN 160 million).[7] The general contractor of the construction was Mostostal Zabrze.[6] The opening took place on 14.11.2001[7] and the original tenants included: Hypernowa and the Entertainment Center (with a climbing wall).
In 2003, Ahold sold the Hypernowa chain to Carrefour Poland, as a result of which the main market in Plejada changed.[8] In 2005, the gallery was sold to a fund managed by St. Martins Property Group. In 2007, the center was expanded with another arcade, which included 16 new stores (chocolate parlor and fitness club).[4] Construction works were carried out by Mostostal Zabrze. In 2010, Cushman & Wakefield took over the management of the facility. In 2012, the center underwent a major renovation.[9]
In 2020, a Biedronka store was opened in the immediate vicinity of the shopping center, and in 2021 work began on the launch of more stores of Euro Mall, a company owned by TK Development. In 2022, a retail park was opened in this place Aura Park with Kik, Dealz, Action, and Media Expert stores.[citation needed]
