“Anthropolo­gie complement­s the vision of City Center Bishop Ranch,” said Alex Mehran Jr., president of San Ramon-based

The 300,000- squarefoot City Center Bishop Ranch complex, when it opens in the coming months, will offer entertainm­ent, retail and restaurant­s.

Anthropo log ie has agreed to open a 9,000- square- foot store in the new City Center, which is being touted as a Bay Area shopping destinatio­n.

“We were looking for more than just a movie theater, so we’re very excited about bringing THE LOT to the Bay Area,” Mehran Jr. said.
