Once
a small agricultural town, Gilbert is
now among the fastest growing cities
in the United States with a population
of 100,000 or more. The impetus for
this growth explosion has been strong
employment opportunities, an acclaimed
educational system, and high-quality
housing opportunities. The Town of Gilbert
delivers an upscale, suburban lifestyle
with the urban resources that come with
being adjacent to metropolitan Phoenix,
the country’s fifth largest city.
Main Street Commons is located at the
Southeast corner of Pecos Road and Val
Vista Drive in the town of Gilbert,
Arizona. It is strategically
positioned adjacent to a major interchange
along the new Santan Freeway (Loop 202),
a six-lane highway scheduled to open
in 2006. This freeway will provide direct
access to the Valley’s other major
freeways including US 60, Loop 101,
I-10, and the existing Loop 202.
