Conceptual plans for Rivanna Plaza

Rivanna Plaza, 2000 Seminole Trail, Charlottesville, Virginia (retail center on US 29 North)

The Rivanna Plaza is a proposed retail development located on the Northern end of Charlottesville, Virginia that will feature 32,100 square feet of commercial space on US29 in front of the Kegler's Bowling Alley[1], between the Lowe's home improvement center and Schewel's furniture store.

The developer reports on-going negotiations with tenants but is particularly interested in tenants that serve families that will utilize the AMF/Kegler's bowling entertainment center in the evenings and on weekends; as well conveniences the more than 150 to 200 families attending the early childhood development at The Learning Experience would be likely to desire twice a day as they drop off and pick up their toddlers; and the more than 50,000 cars per day currently traveling North and South along US 29 at the Northern end of town.

On May 5, 2009, the developer announced signed leases with Dunkin' Donuts (drive-thru) and an early education provider called the Learning Experience Childhood Development Center. The Learning Experience will provide up to 200 early education spots for pre-schoolers and their families, a much needed service in the greater metropolitan Charlottesville area, especially given the expected NGIC (see below) influx of families in the end of town. http://www.TheLearningExperience.com for more information and to indicate enrollment interest when the center is open.

As of July 1, 2009, the center has not yet broken ground but expects to be in construction of phase I within 3 months.

The National Ground Intelligence Center is increasing its employment and expanding its center just a couple of miles North of Rivanna center. For more information, go to: All articles by Charlottesville Tomorrow on Rivanna Station & NGIC
