QuikTrip breaks ground at Cadence at Gateway

Posted

Construction is underway for a new QuikTrip convenience store, gas station and QT Kitchen in Arrival at Cadence, the commercial center at the entrance of the Cadence at Gateway master-planned community in Mesa.

Cadence developers; Arizona-based real estate investment and development company Harvard Investments; and GTIS Partners LP, an international real estate private equity firm headquartered in New York City, welcome QuickTrip to Arrival, according to a release.

Aisha Jefferson-Smith, QuikTrip’s corporate communication manager, said the 4,993-square-foot convenience store will be a custom design exclusively for the Cadence commercial center.

“We began construction on July 19, 2021,” Jefferson-Smith said in the release. “We have already made some great progress and hope to open during the winter of 2021.”

Underground work and stem walls have been completed, with building slab construction, masonry, sewer line installation and fuel line trenching to follow and bridge construction slated for September.

QuikTrip is known for its fresh, made-to-order food; specialty drinks; and tasty frozen treat selections. The business has 124 locations across the state, according to the release.

The Cadence QuikTrip location will have 16-car service for gas, its signature QT Kitchens with fresh hot sandwiches, x-large and personal pizzas, soft pretzels, customizable specialty drinks, frozen drinks, fresh-brewed teas and will be open 24 hours.

“We expect the new Arrival at Cadence to provide our residents and neighbors with the utmost in convenient, quality services. We’re all about making life easier, and we know QuikTrip’s incomparable service and selection will be a welcome addition to Cadence and the growing Gateway corridor,” Tim Brislin, vice president of Harvard Investments, said in the release.

Harvard Investments and GTIS recently announced they are in escrow to sell two commercial pads within Arrival at Cadence. Thompson Thrift Retail Group is planning to build two multi-tenant buildings and anticipates welcoming Point 22 Tavern, Cork Crush Wine Bar & Beer House, NextCare Urgent Care, Athletico Physical Therapy, BoSa Donuts and a nail spa to its shops. TTRG’s tenants are anticipated by mid-2022. These tenants join Mountainside Fitness which opened Sept. 18 and Black Rock Coffee Bar.
