A long-dormant half of a major Chandler corner shopping center appears finally on its way to redevelopment.
Sun Village Fair is about half of a 20.46-acre center on the northeast corner of Alma School and Warner roads in north-central Chandler. While Walmart and other shops and stores have held down one half of the shared parking lot, the shell of what was a Fry’s grocery that closed about 13 years ago has long been a gap on the west half of the lot.
This month, a banner advertising retail space and significant activity on-site show Sun Village Fair is on its way to at least using the Fry’s former grocery part of the indoor space.
