History
[edit]Shopping mall company Simon Property Group began seeking approval to build a mall in Estero, Florida, in 1999. The company originally named their proposal Suncoast McArdle Mall before choosing the name Coconut Point by 2002. Simon's plans called for a 1,200,000-square-foot (110,000 m2) complex consisting of an outdoor mall, as well as adjacent big-box stores and hotel space. The company selected a site along US 41 south of the village of Estero. The company submitted approval to Lee County government officials in October 2002 after three years of preliminary studies.[1]
