Construction Begins on Commercial Center

Tierra Pacifica broke ground on its new commercial center on November 14, less than 48 hours after receiving the necessary permits.
La Plaza de Tierra Pacifica is expected to be completed in November 2008 and is located adjacent to the front gate on the public road to Playa Junquillal. The prime location of the 17,398-square-foot commercial site will provide future business tenants with excellent exposure to vehicle and pedestrian traffic.
La Plaza will include a 6,562 square-foot two-story restaurant and bar with a rooftop garden terrace, as well as eleven retail shops and professional office spaces ranging from 315 to 630 square feet. The owner of the Surf Cafe restaurant-bar is in the process of finalizing an agreement with Tierra Pacifica over operation of that business, which will offer a cosmopolitan menu with a full selection of wines and spirits, bar area including pool tables, and a sunset grill on the terrace providing magnificent ocean and mountain views.
Some of the 11 other commercial spaces are expected to be occupied by retail businesses such as a clothing store, souvenir shop, a day spa, a bakery, a bookstore, an ice cream parlor, a retail electronics store, an art gallery, and a furniture store. Professional offices likely will include architectural and interior design services, attorneys, clerical services, accountants and general contractors. Prices for commercial spaces start at $60,000.
La Plaza de Tierra Pacifica will feature a Spanish pueblo design motif with railed balconies, varied window moldings, tile roof, wrought iron light fixtures and a grand central entryway that opens into an expansive botanical courtyard.
