A portion of the Roseville Junction project is nearing completion with a groundbreaking planned before 2023 ends, according to LRE & Companies CEO Akki Patel in a LinkedIn post.
The Roseville Junction project will be an “entertainment and hospitality destination” located near 290 Conference Center Drive, neighboring the existing Westfield Galleria Mall and Highway 65, according to the City of Roseville website.
The project was approved at a previous Roseville City Council meeting in 2020. The previously city-owned land was purchased for $4.8 million by LRE & Companies and went toward Roseville’s Strategic Improvement Fund.
The project aligns with Roseville’s desire for growth, according to City of Roseville Economic Development Director Melissa Anguiano.
“Roseville continues to grow into a regional destination that’s attracting businesses and visitors,” she said. “The addition of Roseville Junction provides even more amenities, which are important to strengthening our economy and workforce.”
With the recent pickleball craze in the Placer area, it’s no surprise the project is set to include a complex with nine pickleball courts called Electric Pickle. The Roseville location will be the second national Electric Pickle. The two-story complex will include an indoor-outdoor bar and restaurant and a lawn for gatherings and live music. The complex is estimated to open next summer.
A brewery and beer garden are other amenities planned for a summer 2024 opening. Fieldwork Brewing is a craft brewery originally founded in Berkeley and has numerous locations, including Sacramento. The 20,000-square-foot outdoor venue near the brewery is planned to host concerts, artisan events and other small festivals.
The project will likely become a tourist hotspot, considering its close location to the ever-growing Westfield Galleria Mall. Two Hyatt hotels are planned for the project.
More businesses will be able to join the project in the future. Any businesses interested can contact Economic Development at EconomicDevelopment@roseville.ca.us.
