Oct. 7, 2011 at 9:46am Lakewood Pavilion getting landscaping faceliftLakewood Pavilion will soon undergo a flurry of landscaping activity. Since the first phase of the shopping center was completed 14 years ago, much of the landscaping has become overgrown making it difficult to see the stores from the street. "Residents and visitors have complained that they can't find stores located at the shopping center because they are blocked by the overgrown shrubbery and trees," said City of Lakewood Economic Development Manager Ellie Chambers-Grady. "We are so pleased that the owners are investing the time and money to make exterior improvements that will benefit the current retailers and their customers as well as make the shopping center more attractive to future tenants."
