CALIMESA - Construction was brisk at the $30 million, 9.4 acre, 90,319-square-foot neighborhood center called, "The Shoppes at Calimesa" on Wednesday in nearly every phase of construction including off-sight street improvements along Calimesa Blvd.

Owner Jaime Bahr of Inland Valley Pipeline of Temecula and his crew were busy working on the installation of a 16-inch water main extension that runs through the property.

"The project is going smooth and on schedule," Bahr said. "All the improvements will be done by May 1st.

The project runs along the south side of Calimesa Boulevard, and is located near Sandalwood and Myrtlewood drives, and will be built in two phases.

The first phase, which consists of 50,000 square feet, will feature Fresh & Easy, Walgreens, Carl's Jr., Subway and Denny's plus nearly 16,000 square feet of shop space.

There is also a drive-thru pad opportunity at the entrance of the center that is available. Phase one is slated to open in May 2009. The opening of Walgreens at The Shoppes at Calimesa will be the first major drug store to open in the city.
