The City of Johnston is working with The Hansen Company for the Johnston Town Center design. The City broke ground in October 2019. The Town Center Project is a public-private initiative to encourage the redevelopment of Merle Hay Road at the intersection of NW 62nd Avenue to create a commercial center for the City of Johnston that will serve as a local destination for dining, shopping and entertainment.
The building currently under construction facing west, or Merle Hay Road, will house Backpocket Pin & Pixel, The Cork 50131, and Blue Bean Coffee Sponsored by REMAX Concepts, with the first tenant targeting an early January opening. While the building facing the south, or NW 62nd Avenue, has not announced full occupancy, it will house Athletico Physical Therapy and the current plans are to build out the western section as restaurant space that can accommodate a large rooftop patio above it.

Backpocket Pin & Pixel – 6205 Merle Hay Road, Suite 100
