New Retail Center Slated for Utah’s ‘Silicon Slopes’

Work has started on The Collective at Morning Vista, a new retail destination in Lehi, Utah, designed to serve the fast-growing “Silicon Slopes” technology corridor. The 134,000- square-foot development, located roughly midway between Salt Lake City and Provo along the Interstate 15 corridor, will be anchored by a Whole Foods Market and also offer a mix of dining, retail, fitness and service uses.

“The Collective at Morning Vista represents a meaningful investment in one of the most dynamic growth markets in the country,” said Jean Paul Wardy, Founder and CEO of CenterCal Properties, which is developing the complex in partnership with Perry Commercial. “Lehi and the broader Silicon Slopes region continue to experience extraordinary growth driven by a strong technology economy and an expanding residential base. From day one, our ambition for this project has been to create something enduring, a place with a genuine architectural point of view, a highly curated tenant mix, and the kind of community-centered design that people feel connected to.”

Located along the foothills of Lehi with views of the Wasatch Mountains, the partners said The Collective at Morning Vista will draw its architectural identity from a bold mid-century modern design vocabulary: clean lines, warm natural materials and strong geometric forms that create a distinct sense of place.

In addition to Whole Foods, other confirmed tenants for the complex include Bamboo Sushi, VIO Med Spa and Petfolk, the partners said in a news release. The development will also feature a community park/outdoor gathering space, outdoor patios and indoor-outdoor activation areas.

A formal groundbreaking for the development will take place later this month; project participants expect the project to be completed in roughly two years.
