On May 17, 2022, Tempe Mayor Corey Woods kicked off AZ Big Media’s inaugural Fueling the Economy event, underscoring the economic growth happening in one of Arizona’s premier cities. During his presentation, Woods touched on just how much the landlocked municipality has developed in recent years and decades, including the center where the event took place.
“[Tempe Marketplace] is an excellent example of how business and government can work together for the benefit of everyone,” Woods explains. “Vestar and the City of Tempe partnered together to annex the land, garner federal grants, remediate the land and build new roads.”
