Named Modelo, the project is proposed as a mixed-use development along the banks of the Rio Hondo. The project was announced in 2019 with the plans of rebuilding and relocating Commerce’s Veterans Memorial Park in concert with the construction of multiple buildings featuring a mixture of housing, commercial uses, and community spaces. A full buildout of Modelo will include:

• 850 residential units;
• 165,000 square feet of commercial uses;
• a 77,000-square-foot community center;
• a 5,000-square-foot museum;
• 4.75 acres of new open space; and
• parking for more than 1,800 vehicles

The proposed commercial uses will be concentrated in a new entertainment complex located at the northwest corner of the development site. Plans call for:

• a 55,000-square-foot movie theater;
• 16,000 square feet of restaurant space;
• a 15,000-square-foot fitness center;
• a 20,000-square-foot arcade and bowling alley;
• a 25,000-square-foot grocery store and food hall;
• 28,000 square feet of general retail; and
• a 6,000-square-foot pharmacy.

The rebuilt Veterans Memorial Park, relocated slightly east of its current location, is expected to feature a community center with sports facilities, offices, a library, and event space. Plans also call for soccer and baseball fields, a playground, an amphitheater, a museum, and public art.

The architecture of Modelo will set a new high point in the low-slung Commerce skyline through the construction of a 15-story, 250-foot-tall residential tower with a jagged roofline. The remaining buildings in the complex will range from low-rise townhomes to mid-rise, podium-type apartment buildings.

Construction is expected to occur over approximately 43 months, although a precise project timeline has not been announced.
