BATON ROUGE - Two rezoning requests for the now-shuttered site of Cortana Mall were approved unanimously Monday by the East Baton Rouge Planning Commission.
Seefried Industrial Properties, a developer with close ties to Amazon, previously filed the requests to shift the site to warehousing three zoning and its land use to employment center.
Cortana Mall has been nearly vacant since 2019. The Dillard s clearance store is the only business still open, and it will be closing permanently in April.
