Next summer, the space next to the Regal Edwards Market Place, the fountain and restaurants, will debut a newly created community lawn and plaza area. This more than half-acre community space will host a variety of community events.

This new community space is also envisioned to host pop-up shops and other retail and culinary experiences, as well as a holiday tree to welcome special seasonal celebrations.

The design reflects several years of community input and master planning, as Irvine Company engaged with residents and shoppers to understand how best to create new gathering spaces at The Market Place.

A new apartment home community, designed to meet the needs of young professionals who work at nearby medical and office campuses, is under construction adjacent to this new lawn and plaza area. Shopping and dining options continue to grow within easy walking distance of these new residences.

Construction will begin in early June. Regal will have its eight screens showing top-rated movies and blockbusters all summer long. Parking will be available in the area between Regal and Taco Rosa.

We are partnering with other merchants on relocation plans during construction. For updates, please irvinecommunityconnection.com/tmp35/
