Angelópolis Lifestyle Center, is a high-level shopping mall located in Puebla, Mexico. It covers more than 78,000 square meters. The mall was designed by the Sordo Madaleno group and developed as a public-private partnership.
History
In the early 1980s, the city of Puebla was mainly residential. Throughout the decade, the population increased rapidly.[1]
Javier Sordo Madaleno initiated the project and invited Liverpool and Palacio de Hierro groups as investors. Madaleno negotiated with the government of the State of Puebla for the acquisition of land in the area known as Land Reserve Atlixcáyotl. Angelópolis opened for public in 1998, with Liverpool and other stores. Later, stores such as C&A and Sears, Sanborns, boutiques and fast food joints opened. In 2002, the upstairs section of the mall was finished and El Palacio de Hierro was opened.
Angelópolis was planned by the state government to trigger the development of a new urban area. Since the opening of Angelópolis Lifestyle Center, the area is popularly known as Angelópolis, or Zone of Angelópolis.[2]
