Developed by Larry Siegel and Juno Property Group, Grand Bazaar Shops combines a contemporary retail experience with elements reminiscent of world-renowned open-air markets. The $50 million project is highly visible and is expected to attract over 20 million visitors each year.

Juno Property Group turned to CRL to provide key architectural elements for the new retail destination. Grand Bazaar Shops’ units are outfitted with CRL Series FT451 Storefront Systems in conjunction with Series 400 Medium Stile Entrance Doors. CRL simplified the storefront installation process by using its KD Storefront Fabrication Program. By utilizing the program, all materials were completely fabricated in the company’s cutting-edge facilities. Because the storefronts were delivered installation-ready with assembly instructions and hardware included, it saved the glazing contractor, Avanti Glass, time while reducing labor costs.

Other areas of the building front are outfitted with the Series 3250 Curtain Wall System. Series 3250 is characterized by a 2-1/2" profile width and a thermal spacer interlocked within the pressure plates for enhanced thermal performance to counter the region’s temperature extremes.

The products used were designed and engineered to not only enhance the aesthetics of the high-concept retail venue, but also to ensure that the shopping center can withstand the constant flow of traffic. Given Grand Bazaar Shops’ strategic location at the busiest pedestrian intersection in Las Vegas, high performance and durability were essential, and CRL was proud to deliver on all aspects.
