A mixed-use retail, entertainment and residential complex was proposed for the now vacant MISSION CENTER site. Construction on THE GATEWAY project was scheduled to begin in 2008, but was postponed by The Great Recession.

The project sat idle, as the MISSION CENTER site lay vacant and growing weeds. A second plan -for a GATEWAY complex- was announced in November 2011. Construction was to commence in 2012. 2012 came and went, with no construction underway.

The project was assumed by a New York City-based company. A third 
redevelopment plan surfaced in February 2018. Work started on two 
structures, but ground to a halt due to the Covid-19 pandemic. By 
the mid-2020s, the GATEWAY project -delayed for over 17 years- was 
tied up in litigation.
