The Esplanade Mall in Kenner, located at 1401 W. Esplanade Ave., has been listed for sale at $12.5 million. The 363,229-square-foot enclosed mall is now on the market as a significant redevelopment opportunity, excluding the separately-priced former Macy’s space measuring 235,518 square feet.
Listed on May 13, 2026, the property presents a rare opportunity for large-scale mixed-use redevelopment in the New Orleans metro area. Talbot Realty Group’s Michael Pou and Chris Talbot, along with Marshall Nguyen and Jay Mawas from the Wyn Group, are handling the listing.
The mall sits on approximately 72.1 acres and offers 6,640 parking spaces, making it a considerable parcel for potential housing, retail, or entertainment projects. Anchors such as Dillard’s, Target, and The Grand remain operational but are not included in the sale.
Future plans for the space include potential C-1 commercial and PUD projects, with the listing marketed towards a mixed-use redevelopment. The site represents a key opportunity to impact local retail vacancy rates, the tax base, and job creation in Jefferson Parish.
The offering excludes a specific bidder timeline or closing date, indicating flexibility for prospective developers to shape the future of the site based on market needs and strategic planning.
