Town Center Planned for Four-Block Area
- Share via
Signaling a commitment to revamp the identity and economy of Glendale, city officials are expected to set the stage this week for the largest downtown development in 15 years, the $100-million Town Center.
Emerging as the front-runner for the massive project is Donahue Schriber, the Orange County firm that built and operates the adjacent Glendale Galleria.
The Town Center would span more than four blocks of prime real estate in the heart of downtown with stores, entertainment venues, offices, a hotel and a public hall and plaza. It would be the first major project outlined in the city’s newly adopted Greater Downtown Strategic Plan.
The City Council is expected to approve a 90-day exclusive negotiating period today with Donahue Schriber. A committee last week recommended Donahue over two other competitors.
