Here is a really interesting article in the Tribune about the Mesa proving grounds and what sort of plans the developers have for it. At first blush, it sounds like a lot of big talk. But then I realized the group doing the work is DMB Associates.
I looked them up and it turns out that they are the same folks who did Verrado and DC Ranch - which are two of the more interesting communities I have seen. So who knows, maybe they can deliver something like we have never seen before.
We have a real opportunity in East Mesa between Gateway Airport and the Proving Grounds to make something really spectacular. However, its going to take some global thinking and a commitment of not only the people in the area, but businesses and the City of Mesa. Let's hope the action backs up all of the talk.

I went last night to the meeting they had. They have some great plans for that area and if and when it is complete, THAT will be what Mesa is known for. The plans are pretty awesome and if there's a company to do it, DMB is the one...unless the City of Mesa screws it up. Then it will just be the North American Headquarters for Check Smart, Quick Cash and every other payday loan company.
