Brian Baker, Founder, Managing Partner

True North’s Retail Division continues to grow as we were recently selected to build out a monetization plan for Ponce City Market in Atlanta and 900 North Michigan Shops in Chicago.  True North will develop and execute a revenue-enhancing strategy for both properties, identifying ways to secure events, sponsors and brand activations.  True North has a successful history in this industry, having worked with several real estate developers and multi-use property managers, including Simon Property Group, Jones Lang Lasalle, Cousins Properties, Union Station, Atlantic Station, Regency Centers, and more.

900 North Michigan Shops is a visually stunning and highly desired shopping destination that resides on the north end of Chicago’s vibrant Magnificent Mile.

900 North Michigan Shops

The exclusive tenant mix offers shoppers an unparalleled experience of over 70 luxury lifestyle shops featuring Bloomingdale’s and a strong line-up of national brands perfectly complemented by an eclectic collection of unique boutiques and a diverse selection of delectable dining options.

Ponce City Market

Ponce City Market will soon breathe new life into the historic Sears, Roebuck & Co. building in Atlanta. The classic structure, which is the area’s largest adaptive reuse project, is being reinvented as a vibrant community hub that will house the Central Food Hall, various shops, flats and offices, all while pointing back to the roots of its inception. The market will infuse vigor and excitement into this historically-significant structure, located in one of Atlanta’s most cherished neighborhoods.
