Ground will be broken Friday morning on the city’s first business park.
The 30-plus-acre Estrella Gin Business Park will be a major hub for business development and growth along Edison Road, just west of State Route 347.
Developer Joe L. Cook will be joined for the ceremony by representatives of My Home Group Commercial Real Estate, Construction Solutions Co. and the City of Maricopa.
Growth in the city is outpacing available space with an employment base looking to reduce their commuting times within the Phoenix region, according to the city. Availability of office space has essentially been non-existent in the city since 2017.
The property is currently zoned light industrial with the ability to rezone for a large variety of uses. The business park will include leased and build-to-suit space for office, flex/manufacturing/retail, and warehouse/distribution.
The ceremony is scheduled for 9 a.m.
