The Salt Lake Tribune reports today on the Station Park development here in Farmington, Utah.  "Davis County city plans shopping, offices, town-square adjacent to commuter rail station".

The article gives an idea of what is to be in the development:

"By spring 2010, Station Park will feature a main plaza with restaurants and shops on the main levels of 10 buildings, office space on the stories above, a hotel, 15-screen movie theater, performance pavilion and 2-acre park. Four other buildings to the north would include more office and retail space. To the west, 11 to 15 large retailers are planned."

If you look at the plot map of the development the "large retailers" will be on the east side of the development not the west as the Trib reported.

Farmingtoncitizens.org previously posted the list of possible tenets:  "Update Station Park Site Plan".    The list came directly from CenterCal's website.

Farmington's elected officials are real anxious to get retail development going in Farmington.  This project has been a major focus for Mayor Harbertson.  Hopefully Farmington's quest for sales tax revenue will not cloud their judgement in advocating a quality development.  Having JCPenny (rumored to be the largest tenant) as an anchor doesn't seem to put the developments retail pursuits on a good footing.  The 2 acre park and performance pavilion are nice touches though. 

Hopefully this development won't be a island in the City where Farmington residents will avoid going. Since there are no sidewalks leading to the development from west-side neighborhoods nearby residents may avoid piling kids into the car just to make the short drive.
