- Jordan Landing
Jordan Landing is a master-planned development located in the center of
West Jordan, Utah , adjacent toSalt Lake City Municipal 2 Airport . Its 500 acre (2 km²) size, containing convert|1400000|sqft|m2 of retail space, 1,200 residential units, and convert|1500000|sqft|m2 of office space, places it as a focal point ofWest Jordan 's booming economy.It is one of the largest mixed-use developments in the
Intermountain West . Built on a formeralfalfa field and next to Bangerter Highway, with the first phase having its groundbreaking in 1999, Jordan Landing has been criticized for drawing traffic from across theSalt Lake Valley to a formerlyrural area, overwhelming infrastructure, and acting as a catalyst forurban sprawl . However, many developers have cited Jordan Landing's success and positive impact on population growth, with some calling it a catalyst, in their decision to begin construction on their own nearby large mix-use developments. Among them are Utah's Boyer Company, America's largest homebuilderD. R. Horton , and rather uniquely European mining multinationalRio Tinto Group .The shopping center has two "superstores": a
Wal-Mart Supercenter and the first everSears Grand . The Wal-Mart Supercenter was the first such store in the Salt Lake City area and is consistenty rated among the busiest in theUnited States , attracting 80,000 shoppers a week.Fact|date=December 2007 Jordan Landing also contains 12 dine-in restaurants, and 13 fast-food establishments, mostly of the national chain variety.Jordan Landing is also the location of Utah's largest cinema by number of screens, a 24-screen
Cinemark theater (the largest theater by seats is Larry H. Miller's 20 screen megaplex in the nearby "The District" in South Jordan, in which seats are more tightly packed).Mountain America Credit Union and Cyprus Credit Union have their corporate headquarters in Jordan Landing. The community also contains many apartments, condominiums, and townhouses. Additionally, two hotels are scheduled for construction, a
Hampton Inn and the first AmeriTel Inn outside of the Pacific Northwest.tore Directory
