Demo Makes Way For New Stores The old retail space at 8484 Mayfield Road has been demolished to make way for a new, modern retail structure with higher store fronts that will take advantage of the property’s high visibility location, according to Eric Andrews, a licensed real estate broker with USA Management & Development Inc. The back and side walls were retained in order to preserve existing variances. Andrews said several national retailers have expressed interest in the property, although no leases have been signed. For more information about 8484 Mayfield Road, contact Andrews at 440-537-5758 or eric@usamgt.com.
