A highly anticipated mixed-use development has broken ground in Gilbert, Arizona’s Heritage District. Marking the first phase of the 10-acre destination, Heritage Park has begun construction with Creation and Crescent Communities leading the charge.
Encompassing an entire city block at Gilbert Road and Juniper Avenue, Heritage Park’s initial phase includes NOVEL Heritage Park, a 288-residence luxury multifamily community; roughly 47,000 square feet of retail and restaurants; more than 300 surface parking spaces; and a public square with water features, landscaping, public art, and walking and biking paths.
NOVEL Heritage Park, which is set to deliver in March 2027, will include multifamily residences with a full menu of amenities; contemporary design; and engaging resident programming aimed to build community and foster connections.
“By integrating Gilbert’s rich history with modern energy and sophisticated design, we’re creating an environment where residents, professionals, and visitors can gather, connect, and experience the best of the Heritage District. From elevated retail and dining to purposefully curated living spaces, Heritage Park captures the vibrant character and inviting atmosphere that makes Gilbert one of the most sought-after places to live and visit,” says Sagar Rathie, managing director at Crescent Communities.
Heritage Park will open in phases with the first openings anticipated in 2026. LGE Design Build is spearheading construction. Future phases of Heritage Park will include a 125-room hotel, offices, and additional parking.
“Bringing Heritage Park from vision to reality is a collaborative effort, driven by our exceptional development and construction teams, supportive town leadership, and visionary tenants,” says David Sellers, co-founder of Creation. “Together, we are committed to creating an iconic gateway into Gilbert’s Heritage District—one that enhances quality of life, celebrates local culture and offers an exceptional experience for both residents and visitors.”
