Meridian Commercial Real Estate

Why Meridian

Meridian has grown from a farm town into Idaho's second-largest city, with nearly 107,000 residents according to recent Census estimates, and it keeps growing. That growth brings rooftops, and rooftops bring retail, restaurants, medical, fitness and service businesses that all need space. For landlords and investors, Meridian has some of the deepest tenant demand in the state. For tenants, it has the customers.

The Village at Meridian

The Village at Meridian, CenterCal Properties' open-air center at Eagle Road and Fairview Avenue, is the heart of Meridian retail, and it just got bigger. The final expansion phase is bringing a lineup that tells you exactly where national brands think Idaho's shoppers are:

• Apple: a new store of about 10,400 SF, one of the most closely watched openings in the valley
• Pottery Barn (about 11,700 SF), Kendra Scott, Gorjana, Tecovas, Tempur-Pedic, Alo and Vuori
• 7th Avenue: the California furniture brand's first Idaho location
• The Capital Grille and Culinary Dropout along Eagle Road, plus Flower Child, Paris Baguette and Solidcore

Stores began opening in fall 2026, with the full expansion expected to be open by early 2027. When brands like these commit to a market, every property around them benefits: more traffic, stronger rents and more tenants who want to be nearby.

The corridors that matter

Eagle Road

The busiest commercial corridor in Idaho. From I-84 north past the Village to Chinden, Eagle Road is lined with national retail, restaurants, medical and fitness. It's where we placed The Mecca in the former Gold's Gym.

Fairview Avenue

Meridian's east-west retail spine, anchored by the Village. Pad sites, inline retail and quick-service users compete for frontage here.

I-84, Overland and Silverstone

The interchanges at Eagle Road, Meridian Road and Ten Mile have become Meridian's office and medical hub. New projects keep coming, including a medical office building planned at Eagle View Landing near Eagle Road and I-84. We placed Empower Funnels at the Silverstone campus.

Ten Mile, Victory and South Meridian

The newer neighborhoods south of the interstate are filling in fast, and daily-needs retail is following them. Drive-thru coffee, quick service and neighborhood centers lead the way, like the Black Rock Coffee drive-thru we sold on E Victory Rd.

How KZB works in Meridian

• Tenants: we know which centers have space before it's listed, and we negotiate the lease so you can afford to grow into it.
• Landlords: we lease vacant space to strong local and national operators.
• Investors: we find net lease and multi-tenant properties in one of the strongest growth markets in the Mountain West.

The Village at Meridian expansion opens: fall 2026

CenterCal's final expansion at the Village is bringing Apple, Pottery Barn, Kendra Scott, Gorjana, 7th Avenue's first Idaho store and more, with openings starting in September 2026 and the full expansion expected by February 2027. Our take: the Apple store alone will pull shoppers from across the valley. Expect demand for space near the Village to climb. BoiseDev →

The Capital Grille and Culinary Dropout on Eagle Road

Two upscale restaurants are part of the expansion along Eagle Road, facing each other across the corridor. Our take: fine dining on Eagle Road is a sign that Meridian's spending power is catching up with its population. BoiseDev →

New medical office planned at Eagle View Landing

Ahlquist Developers plans a three-story medical office building at Eagle View Landing near Eagle Road and I-84, with the development expected to finish in 2027. Our take: medical keeps following Meridian's growth, and good medical space stays full. KIVI →
