The 2,500-acre development features rail service, utility and water access in an effort to land advance manufacturing and other employment to the region. Posted Wednesday, May 13, 2026 9:00 am A new project in the West Valley is being identified to bring advanced manufacturing and other employment generation on a 2,500-acre site. The Phoenix office of JLL announced Wednesday it was marketing Grand View Arizona in Buckeye to various users in a effort to bring in more business to the region. Developers estimate at full build-out the project could generate $1 billion in economic impact. The land is bordered by Broadway Road to the north, Maricopa County Route 85 to the south and Dean and Perryville roads to the east and west. It features rail service from Union Pacific as well as infrastructure with availability to power, water and telecommunications, JLL officials said in a release. “Grand View Arizona represents a major step forward in Buckeye’s economic future, positioning our city to compete for the next generation of high-quality employers,” said Buckeye Mayor Eric Orsborn. JLL’s Marc Hertzberg, Anthony Lydon, Greg Matter, John Lydon and Nicole Marshall are marketing the land for immediate development. “When you take in this site — more than twice the size of (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.), more than three times the size of the Chandler Intel campus, and able to reach 40% of the U.S. population within a two-day truck haul — you can’t help but recognize its magnitude and potential,” said Hertzberg. “Grand View Arizona is set to spark long-lasting economic vitality, attracting a mix of development that will shape the region for decades to come.” In addition to its proximity to transportation routes, Grand View Arizona is about 11 miles from Phoenix-Goodyear Airport, 30 miles from Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport and is proximate to nearby healthcare facilities, commercial services and Verrado Marketplace, a $275 million development by Vestar that is serving the area with more than 50 retailers and restaurants. “With its scale and infrastructure, Grand View Arizona will be a defining factor in our region,” said Anthony JLL’s Lydon. “The project is rooted within a highly developed logistics network and supported by robust population growth, employment-friendly policies, expansive infrastructure, skilled labor, and reshoring initiatives needed to make the next chapter in manufacturing a reality. The combination is powerful and reflects the potential of business and innovation in our state.” Subscribers make this story possible. Support the journalists of Independent Newsmedia .
