A retail project in Laveen will get a different anchor tenant than originally planned.
Target is now on tap as an anchor at the next phase Laveen Park Place - a development underway off the Loop 202 Freeway and Baseline Road from Phoenix-based Kitchell Development.
Harkins Theaters was originally slated to anchor the complex under a development plan the city approved years back.
“Since the rezoning approval, market conditions have evolved and the previously contemplated movie theater with a second major tenant is no longer proposed,” according to a narrative document about the modification to existing zoning approvals.
