Glendale, Ariz. — Diversified Partners has broken ground on Shops at the Cardinal, a 25,000-square-foot shopping center located in Glendale, approximately nine miles northwest of Phoenix. Situated near State Farm Stadium, the $20 million project will span nine acres and feature a mix of retail and restaurant concepts, as well as multiple drive-thru options and outdoor seating. Confirmed tenants at the property — which is nearing full lease-up — include Swig; Señor Taco; Nautical Bowls; Starbucks Coffee; Bonchon; Pacific Dental Services; La Botana; Jeremiah’s Italian Ice; a Mexican sushi concept; a nail salon and spa; and McDonald’s, who will occupy its own building. Additionally, 1,200 square feet is still available for lease.
Further tenant buildouts will begin later this year, with openings anticipated for early 2026. The Renaissance Cos. is serving as the general contractor, while RKAA Architects is designing the center.
