Do check out our website www.thelegaspi.com and the various malls we own
and or manage in the US. They all celebrate Hispanics year round.

La Gran Plaza de Fort Worth; Plaza Fiesta de Atlanta; Desert Sky Mall in
Phoenix, Panorama Mall Los Angeles, Pacific View in Ventura; Plaza Mayor in
Oklahoma City. We hold Fiestas Patrias and events such as Dia de la Virgen
de Guadalupe.

*Very sincerely yours,*

*José de Jesús Legaspi*
