Both Factoria Mall, a $50 million project in Bellevue, Wash., and Grant Square, a $75 million mixed-use project in Orlando, Fla. which will include a new 185,000 square foot Target, are complete site redevelopments that are in the initial stages.

In Mexico, Kimco has 18 projects underway with targeted investment in excess of US $600 million which are expected to generate yields between 12 - 16 percent.
