The industrial Glen Harbor Airpark northeast of the Glendale Municipal Airport has seen a development boom in the last year and half. City officials say the spark in activity is thanks in large part to its proximity to Glendale’s Sports and Entertainment District.
In January 2019, there were 17 privately-owned vacant parcels in the airpark northwest of Glendale Avenue and Loop 101. A year and a half later, 16 of those 17 properties are either under construction or planning construction.
Many of the airpark’s main tenants have opened recently, too. Conair opened a distribution center in 2017, Dignity Health opened the St. Joseph’s Westgate Medical Center in 2014, Credit Union West opened a corporate office there in 2019, and Swire Coca-Cola has expanded its bottling facility three times since 2016.
