Caliber buys up buildings to give Downtown Mesa a makeover
For years, Arizona’s cities have been revitalizing their downtowns by bolstering the arts, installing public infrastructure like the light rail and enticing a plethora of unique, private development projects. It’s no question that Downtown Mesa has been on the receiving end of these efforts, as light rail and the Mesa Arts Center have transformed the area. Now, Downtown Mesa is set to receive another transformation after Caliber, The Wealth Development Company purchased 100,000 square feet of property in the heart of downtown
The property will officially rebrand and become Delta Hotels by Marriott Phoenix Mesa on October 3, 2018. The renovation included all 274 guestrooms and suites, flexible meeting space, lobby and common areas, as well as the property’s two dining venues Café Azul and AZ Brew. The hotel is owned by Ensemble Real Estate Investments. A grand opening and ribbon cutting event is scheduled for October 10, 2018.
