Location History
Development for what was then called Buckeye Parkway Center began in 2007 but was never completed due to the Great Recession and the location was paved but nothing was developed until 2020 when Sequoia Pathfinder Academy was built on the southeast corner of the property.
Historical aerial images of the area dating back to 1958 when Buckeye had a population of approximately 2000, show no prior development. In the 1970s Interstate 10 was built and Verrado Way was also made in the early 2000s.
