A local businessman is working on plans for a multi-story commercial project on the south side of the intersection of Wilson and Garvey Avenues.
Entrepreneur Robert Vannasdale, who owns the Discount Cleaners at 41155 W. Garvey Ave., is in the initial planning stages for a four-story, mixed-use building on the site. Vannasdale would tear down the structure that houses Discount Cleaners and relocate it on the same 1.5-acre property, which sits on the south side of Garvey where it meets Wilson Ave.
The Maricopa location is one of five Discount Cleaners Vannadsale owns throughout metro Phoenix.
The project would feature commercial space on the ground level; several Air BnB rentals on the second floor; an upscale steakhouse, to be named “Dorissimo” on the third floor; and a nightclub, tentatively called “Maricopa Skies.”
Vannasdale said he envisions a building with 7,000 square feet per floor. He already has begun readying the site for construction of the 28,000 sq. ft. project. No timetable was given for the start of construction or buildout.
