The Resort Core

The Resort Core is at the heart of DMB's framework for the redevelopment of the property which includes notions of multiple urban/activity centers, a resort/hospitality component, an urban open space system, urban villages, and a connected transportation system.  A substantial revenue generating operation such as Gaylord, which will be followed by the development of other hotels, resorts and retail components, is essential to the project's sustainability and livability.  The inclusion of high-level amenities will attract urban commerce, including retail, Class A office space and residential components, and will increase the opportunity for thousands of new high-quality jobs. 

"This type of tourism is what Mesa needs as the benefits of the community reach far and wide from the creation of jobs, boosting the economy, lowering taxes and enhancing the quality of life."
