Flintridge Centre

The Flintridge Centre is a 293,496 square-foot shopping center located at 6550 Aaron Aronov Drive near I-20/59 in Fairfield. It was developed by Aronov, a Montgomery-based real estate company specializing in retail centers. The name of the center recalls the nearby Flintridge Building, headquarters for U. S. Steel's Fairfield Works.

Tenants include Sears, Radio Shack, Cato and Sally's Beauty Supply. Former tenants include K-Mart and Winn-Dixie.

In 2005 the Flintridge Centre, Belleview Plaza and Western Hills Mall were studied as part of the Western Hills Mall and Aronov Drive Corridor Revitalization Study. Recommendations included multi-story office/retail buildings to take advantage of interstate visibility, additional outparcel buildings in the existing surface parking lots, and construction of a new 6-story parking deck.

The shopping center was purchased in 2007 by Nassimi Realty of New York. The seller was Life Investors Insurance Company, based in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
