Former El Charro /restaurant

Why would you open a business at 105 N Country Club Dr ? Simple: It’s the ultimate "Right Place, Right Time" move in Downtown Mesa. Here is why this 0.77-acre site is a total no-brainer: 1. A Captive (and Hungry) Audience Forget waiting for customers—they are already here. Within just one mile, the daytime population hits 36,023 . That is nearly double the residential count, meaning you’ve got a massive, built-in lunch and mid-day crowd of workers, students, and professionals ready to spend. 2. 30,000+ Daily Impressions Positioned as the Western Gateway to the Downtown Transformation District , your signage will be front-and-center for a staggering 30,829 vehicles every single day . You aren't just on a street; you are on a regional arterial road (SR 87) that funnels the entire East Valley directly past your front door. 3. The "ASU Effect" & Cultural Magnetism You are blocks away from the ASU MIX Center , which is pouring tech-forward students and faculty into the area. Add the Mesa Arts Center and its 400,000+ annual patrons to the mix, and you’ve got a year-round pipeline of foot traffic and "destination" seekers. 4. Instant Brand Equity (The El Charro Legacy) You aren't just opening a shop; you are inheriting a legend. This site was the home of the historic El Charro restaurant , a community landmark since 1958. Leveraging this mid-century nostalgia means instant local press, community goodwill, and significantly lower customer acquisition costs. 5. The "Financial Cheat Code" Mesa wants you here. Because this site is in an Opportunity Zone and a Redevelopment Area , featuring a stack new incentives like Demo and aggressive adaptive reuse grants . This dramatically lowers your upfront costs and speeds up your timeline compared to a standard ground-up build. Visit for up to date info. The Bottom Line: Whether it’s a boutique grocery, a craft eatery, or a high-end ice cream shop, this rectangular 33,525 SF footprint gives you the visibility of a major highway with the soul of a historic urban core. Stop looking for the "next big thing" in Mesa—you just found the gateway to it.
