Phoenix’s Metrocenter Mall, opened in the 1970s, was in its heyday one of the biggest and busiest malls in the US. Fast forward to the present to learn how the 1.6 mile Northwest Extension Phase II will leap over an Interstate highway to extend the reach of transit-oriented development. Hear from the developers who are transforming the mall into a walkable urban village, with multifamily units and commercial space. Explore – before the opening set for 2024 – the elevated light rail station with a bus transit center at the plaza level. Find out about innovative approaches to delivering this project and how Valley Metro is integrating artwork into three new stations. You’ll also hear from local leaders about how the community is planning to flourish.
