A grand opening of The Village will occur in January when all businesses are open. Many thanks to Innisfree Ventures for their commitment to bringing a high quality, attractive shopping center to San Leandro! The Village has already brought additional desired retail to Downtown San Leandro. Chipotle is schedule to open across the street in the former CopyMat location in mid-December.

Think PARKING. I already dont shop much around here because of the parking situation. And I cant walk far to get to these shops. So we will see if this is actually goo for the city. Why not REAL restaurants & not all these franchises stores?
Hard to believe that parking was never considered!!! There is hardly any and the CVS drive-thru pharmacy line is only going to cause more big problems!!! Where were the planning people?
I can understand the need to have franchised/corporate anchor businesses, but here was a perfect opportunity to assist local and/or small businesses for success in our wonderful city. CVS, AT&T, Peet’s Coffee, Habit Burger, Chipotle(?!). Hello? What a missed opportunity.
