What's being built along Country Club Drive and Main Street in Mesa

By Maritza Dominguez

Location: Country Club Drive and Main Street in Mesa

Description: A five-story 198-unit apartment complex with 19,000 square feet of commercial space along 2 acres at Country Club Drive and Main Street is under construction.

The project, called Residences on Main, sits on a roughly 2-acre parcel at the corner of Country Club Drive, which was left untouched for more than 20 years.

The $90 million investment from Chicanos Por La Causa is part of the organization's mission to increase the number of housing units amid the state’s shortage. The ground floor commercial space will house small local businesses.

History of site: In the 1990s, the city began condemning land at the Country Club Drive and Main Street intersection as an urban renewal effort to make way for an Ace Hardware store.

Randy Bailey, owner of Bailey’s Brake Services, sued the city, saying its plans went outside of its power because the land would be used for a private, not public use.
