Downtown Mesa: It Starts at the Heart
Downtown Mesa is the urban core of
Arizona's third largest city
where people live and businesses thrive. Experience arts and
culture, shop, dine, play or simply discover something new.
Downtown Mesa also offers unparalleled investment opportunities
in its efforts to promote a transit-supported, urban
environment.
The City of Mesa owns over 288 acres of land with high density
zoning within 1/2 mile of the four Light Rail Transit (LRT)
stations that will open along Main Street in 2015. Arizona's
largest performing and visual arts center, the renowned Mesa
Arts Center, anchors Downtown and welcomes over 387,000 patrons
annually. Territorial architecture, the proximity to the
region's many transportation arteries, a pedestrian friendly
scale and an ever-expanding higher education network, Downtown
Mesa offers great potential for investment.
Featured Development Opportunities
What is
Transit Oriented Development (TOD)?
Transit Oriented Development (TOD) is a walkable, mixed-use form
of development typically focused within a 1/2 mile radius of a
Transit Station.
Higher density development is concentrated near the station to
make transit use more convenient and encourage ridership.
This
form of development utilizes existing infrastructure, optimizes
use of the transit network and creates mobility options for
transit riders and the local community. Successful TOD provides
a mix of land uses and densities that will create a convenient,
interesting and vibrant Downtown community for residents and
visitors alike
