By Creation RE/PE
Creation has been given the green light to move ahead with construction on a three-building, 16-acre industrial park in Tempe, marking the company’s first industrial undertaking within the city.
Nexus Commerce Center is a three-building, 274KSF development located on the SEC of Elliot Road and Hardy Drive. These state-of-the-art buildings will replace the vacant Elliot Corporate Center, once anchored by the University of Phoenix as a call center. The existing two-story building will be demolished to make way for the new development.
Nexus Commerce Center has been designed and will be built by LGE Design Build. Creation has brought on Amherst and CrossHarbor Capital Partners as financial partners. Mike Haenel, Andy Markham and Phil Haenel of Cushman and Wakefield will oversee the leasing and are currently fielding pre-lease inquiries. Site work will begin in October and completion is expected in the third quarter of 2025.
