Electronics giant Pioneer plans to open its second U.S. store at CityCenter in CityNorth, the 70-acre heart of the under-construction residential, retail, office and entertainment complex at 56th Street and Deer Valley Drive in northeast Phoenix.
Pioneer plans to sell and service Pioneer, Elite and Premier brand product lines at the Valley shop. It will feature lifestyle vignettes, including an ultimate Pioneer home cinema experience and a vehicle to demonstrate its in-car navigation, audio and video options, according to CityNorth developers.
“Pioneer’s decision to expand beyond its flagship location at South Coast Plaza in Orange County to CityCenter of CityNorth is indicative of the hand-crafted retail experience we are bringing to the Northeast Valley,” said Webber Hudson, executive vice president of Related Urban, which is piloting the retail development at CityNorth.
Other just-announced retailers for CityNorth include bebe, Lens Crafters and Bobby Chan, which sells upscale but casual men’s and women’s clothing.
CityNorth also announced new restuarants that are joining the eatery line-up. Press Coffee Food Wine, Mojo Yogurt and Saito’s Japanese Steak House have signed on. All plan to debut on High Street, which is slated to open Nov. 13.
High Street is the first of three mixed-use neighborhoods planned for CityCenter. It features 47 shops, eight restaurants, 39 for-sale condominium residences, 60 luxury rental condos and 320,000 square feet of Class A office and medical suite space.
