Four Corner Square

Kite Realty Group’s Four Corner Square, a neighborhood shopping center on the northwest corner of Kent Kangley Road and Maple Valley Black Diamond Road in Maple Valley, is undergoing a phased redevelopment and expansion.

The first phase of the project includes an addition to the north side of the existing building that will expand the center from 44,000 square feet to 109,000 square feet. It will include a 35,000-square-foot Johnson’s Home and Garden, an 18,200-square-foot Grocery Outlet and an additional 11,000 square feet of retail space.

Walgreens also will join the retail mix as will multiple out-parcels along Maple Valley Black Diamond Road.

Phase II of the redevelopment includes a renovation of the existing center, including updated facades and lighting, landscape and parking lot repairs that will add new life to this center.

“We’ve been working in conjunction with the city on the redevelopment plans for this project for some time,” said Mark Jenkins, senior vice president, development, of Kite Realty Group. “We’re pleased to see the plans come to fruition.”

As part of the redevelopment, Kite Realty Group will develop the new two-lane road connecting Kent Kangley Road and 264th Street – giving surrounding neighborhoods easier access to Four Corner Square and Fred Meyer center located directly across the street.
