BREA, Calif. — The Brea Mall could become a mixed-use urban retail village. The Brea city council will meet Tuesday night on whether to approve Simon Property Group's plan to redevelop a former 162,000-square-foot Sears building and parking lot on the Southwest area of the Brea Mall's 74-acre footprint. Simon Property proposed demolishing the Sears building and parking lot to build a new mixed-use urban center on 15.5-acres consisting of a five-story 380-unit apartment above a three-story parking structure, a two-story 90,000-square-foot resort-type fitness center, and a 21,800 square foot central green space and a 13,000 square-foot plaza for outdoor gatherings.
