Vestar is celebrating significant milestones in the development of Vineyard Towne Center, which is its ground up project in the Town of Queen Creek.
Spanning 260,000 square feet, Vineyard Towne Center is already home to a diverse mix of retail shops, services, and dining options, becoming a central hub for the growing Queen Creek community, according to a press release.
Phase 2 of the development is expected to be completed by the end of 2025, the release states.
“We’re excited about the strong tenant lineup we’ve secured at Vineyard Towne Center,” said Taylor Alvey, vice president of leasing at Vestar.
“Our goal has always been to create a premiere shopping experience that would meet the needs of the expanding Queen Creek community, and we’re confident we’ve achieved that. With nearly 100% of the Vineyard Towne Center now leased, we’re confident that we are bringing a vibrant destination for both residents and visitors.”
As of January 2025, several new Phase 2 tenants—McDonald’s, Over Easy, Café Rio, Academy Bank, Cinnaholic, LifeQuest, and Cadence Running Company — have opened their doors and are ready to serve Queen Creek customers and its surrounding communities.
Construction is also underway on Phase 2- including anchor tenant, Target, which is slated to open in the fall 2025. Vestar plans to make additional announcements regarding its grand opening date this spring.
Vineyard Towne Center is one of several ground-up developments Vestar has underway in Arizona, including Verrado Marketplace, Laveen Towne Center, The Shops at Lake Pleasant and more in the pipeline.
