Eastvale – Since it first became a city in October of 2010, Eastvale has grown immensely. An area that was once mainly known for dairy farms is now buzzing with shopping centers, beautiful parks, and great schools. The growth our city has experienced is not letting up any time soon either! Here are some of the new businesses, developments, and projects that are taking place or coming to Eastvale soon.

Walmart is still in the planning stages, but is said to be coming to the southeast corner of Limonite and Archibald Avenues in the near future.

The final map for the Providence Business Park, consisting of 14 new industrial buildings and located west of Archibald and south of Limonite, is being processed.

On the southeast corner of Schleisman Road and Scholar Way, the “Copper Sky at Eastvale” residential area is under construction.

A 99 Cents Only store is being discussed for the northwest corner of Hamner Ave. and the “new” Schleisman Rd.

The Chandler Catholic Church is set to be located on, you guessed it, Chandler St. The project is moving forward, and revised plans along with a formal application are expected by the city in the next couple of months.

On the northeast corner of Bellegrave and Hamner Avenue’s, the Goodman Commerce Business Park is going to accommodate professional offices with light industrial uses.

The Eastvale Marketplace is planned to be built on the corner of Limonite and Sumner Avenue, and is going to provide opportunity for many businesses to become tenants and join the community.

Vantage Point Church is in the planning process of starting to build its own sanctuary, church, and community buildings on Archibald Ave.

In addition to the above mentioned projects and more, it was recently announced that both Amazon and the Volkswagen Group of America will also be putting down roots in Eastvale soon. According to press releases shared on the city of Eastvale’s website, the Amazon facility will be “… approximately one million square feet in length and will… employ hundreds of full-time associates,” and the Volkswagen building will “create a state-of-the-art training facility” in the areas of “technical, collision repair and sales training.” For more information about the Volkswagen building, read the article on page 1.

Each new business and development adds to our city’s community in a big way and we are not going to stop growing any time soon!
