Wesley Chapel Retail Set to Explode

Wesley Chapel residents certainly have something to cheer about: the development of three, count them, THREE new shopping centers within a 5 mile radius of each other, right in the heart of Pasco county!

The largest, Cypress Creek Town Center is anchored at the Northwest corner of State Road 56 and I-75. It is scheduled to open in the fall, and will house big name retailers like Costco, Books-A-Million, Old Navy, Kohl's, and more. New dining options are another important addition to this center, and will include P.F.Chang's, Fish City, and T.G.I. Friday's, just to name a few. The mixed-use space will also offer apartments, hotel rooms, and offices.

Just East of Cypress Creek, where the existing JCPenny rests, construction is underway for a full-size shopping mall, called the Shops at Wiregrass. Macy's and Dillard's are set to join Penny's as the malls three main tenants, while specialty retailers such as Pottery Barn, Williams-Sonoma, and Lenscrafters will take up the smaller slots. This easily accessible mall located right off of Bruce B. Downs will be a quick drive for Wesley Chapel and New Tampa residents alike.

Lastly, The Grove, which is situated on the corner of State Road 54 and I-75 recently hosted its grand opening with retailers Best Buy, Toys R Us, and Dick's Sporting Goods. While still under construction, The Grove is scheduled to offer more favorites like Bed Bath & Beyond, Michaels, TJ Maxx, and Petsmart in the near future.
