In addition to plenty of retail options, the proposed Verrado Marketplace will feature movie theaters, a gym and a grocery store, according to site plans for the proposed retail center.

DMB Associates, the Master Developer of the Verrado master planned community, announced in earlier this year that it is partnering with Vestar, the largest privately-held shopping center owner, developer, and manager in the western United States, to create Verrado Marketplace, a dynamic retail center at the front door of Verrado, an 8,800-acre master-planned community in Buckeye, Arizona.

The DMB/Vestar team is planning for a retail development called Verrado Marketplace that will include over 500,000-square-feet of commercial space and will be poised to serve as a Town Center for not only the residents of Verrado, but also the residents of Buckeye to enjoy.

Verrado Marketplace will be designed to complement the small-town neighborhood charm that is the hallmark of the Verrado community. It is anticipated the project will feature a premier grocery store as well as other uses such as apparel and home decor stores, department store, movie theater, and several new specialty shops, restaurants, and services. The project will feature large public outdoor spaces rich in amenities that will serve as another gathering spot for all the surrounding communities. Vestar is well known for hosting hundreds of free community events each year at similar projects like Tempe Marketplace and Desert Ridge Marketplace.
