of long-term investment. MWR's in-house development, construction
management, leasing and property management departments are staffed with
seasoned professionals dedicated to creating and maintaining long-term

public/private development and redevelopment projects, totaling 1.6
million square feet, is under construction on two projects totaling
620,000 square feet, and controls another 1.1 million square feet not yet
under development. MWR is financially positioned to aggressively pursue
shopping center opportunities in a five-state area.
