MANTECA IN THE MIDDLE
Family City slowly luring regional retail, entertainment
living spaces grand opening
Craig Johnson of Living Spaces cuts the ribbon Tuesday on the new Manteca store as, from left, Councilman Gary Singh, Mayor Ben Cantu, and Manteca Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Joann Beattie look on. Behind them are Richard Silverman and Steve DeBrum who were on the council when the deal was made to bring Living Spaces to Manteca.
The opening of Living Spaces furniture showroom on Tuesday on Atherton Drive west of Union Road is the latest in a deliberate strategy by Manteca officials to snare super-regional retailers and family entertainment venues.
