The Colorado Springs Economic Development Corporation does a great job promoting the city for business. In their latest newsletter they included a link to the new University Village retail development at Nevada and I25, and I have to say I am impressed at how large this is going to be. They are mentioning Costco, Lowes, Petsmart and Kohls (although I don't see the Kohls building labelled in the diagrams) as anchor tenants. This will be a large development! We've all been waiting for the freeway to get finished so they could get this thing going. Hopefully it won't be delayed substantially past the Summer 2008 schedule shown on the web site, but this looks like it will be a very nice addition to the shopping landscape, and a nice replacement for some of the blighted motels that used to be spread along this ection of North Nevada.
