City Creek Reserve, the Mormon church’s development arm, unveiled dramatic plans to transform 4.5 acres along Main Street in Mesa next to the temple.
The redevelopment, aimed at reviving Mesa’s downtown, includes mostly housing, a mix of rental apartments and townhomes. This comes during a swell of development plans for downtown Mesa, including a 15-story hotel, a $59 million mixed-use development, and the revival of 100,000 square-feet of space in eight buildings down Main Street.
