CHANDLER, AZ-The Schirmer Ball Co. is eyeing final approval of construction documents within three months, setting off immediate work on a $40-million, mixed-use project in Chandler.

Schirmer recently received a city zoning approval on Biagio, The Village at Wildtree, a mixed-use project that will have office, retail, medical and residential components. The 22-acre site is situated at the northeast corner of Rural Road and Chandler Boulevard. “This is the first of its kind here,” Scott Schirmer, principal, tells GlobeSt.com. “The retail will serve as a gathering place for all the other uses. We developed the center for people to come and stay, to have a cup of coffee, to enjoy a restaurant, not to just come and shop and leave. We are trying to create a community within a community.”

Biagio will include 20,500 sf of inline retail shops, a 17,000-sf Osco Drug store, two retail pads, 15,000 sf of medical office space, 15,000 sf of general office space and 200 apartments. An open patio area between two of the restaurant spaces is designed as a gathering place. The retail space should be ready for occupancy by November 2002.
