Dirt will be moving soon near Topgolf on I-84 in Meridian. What you’ll see go up
AI-generated summary reviewed by our newsroom.
- Ahlquist will build a five-story, 125,000-square-foot corporate campus east of Topgolf.
- A 60,000-sq-ft high-end medical building and 3-6 smaller medical office buildings planned.
- Revolution 2.0 concert venue set to open in March 2027 with 2,300 capacity.
New medical and office buildings and a concert venue will soon place the capstone on a landmark Boise-area development more than 20 years in the making.
Eagle View Landing, the head-turning development with Topgolf along the freeway in Meridian, is about to get one last major upgrade, according to Holt Haga, vice president of leasing at Ahlquist. That’s the Meridian commercial development firm — named for its CEO, Tommy Ahlquist — that is behind the project.
The four-part plan would add more than 200,000 square feet of commercial space to “round out the ecosystem” at Eagle View, Haga told the Idaho Statesman by phone.
Part 1 is a five-story, 125,000-square-foot corporate campus east of Topgolf, Haga said.
He declined to name the company that would occupy the campus. He said developers with Ahlquist are working with a “large corporate user” and are in the design stage.
Part 2 is a 7-acre medical campus with several buildings. Part 3 is a standalone, three-story medical office building. Part 4 is the concert venue.
The medical campus is slated for undeveloped land to Topgolf’s south, Haga said. There, Ahlquist plans to build a cluster of three to six medical office buildings.
Further west, on the corner of Eagle Road and the freeway, Ahlquist is designing Part 3, the 60,000-square foot medical office building. That 3-acre property, off South Rackham Way, is “the last arrow we’ve held in the quiver,” Haga said. “... Our trophy parcel, if you will.”
“Those two roads collectively have, you know, they’re the busiest traffic corridors in the state by about 5-X,” he said. “So it’s really just a premium pad, and so we’re going to do some really high-end medical on that pad.”
Haga said Ahlquist is working with a few providers and physicians groups on the three-story building, whom he also did not name.
2K-person concert venue to replace longtime Garden City hall
And the concert venue? Creston Thornton, president of Live Nation’s mountain region and owner of Garden City’s Revolution Concert House, plans to break ground in three weeks on Revolution 2.0, he told the Statesman.
The venue at 1170 S. Silverstone Way, by the Hyatt Place hotel and The Bruery, will replace the Garden City hall, the Statesman previously reported.
The 28,000-square-foot building is set to hold 2,300 people, with a VIP balcony and a full-time bar and restaurant called the Box Office Bar, Thornton said Wednesday.
Roughly 1,000 parking spaces at nearby office buildings will convert to concert parking in the evenings, he said, while the hotels would allow bands to “stay and play.”
Thornton said he was initially considering moving to the Ten Mile Road area, but when the parcel in Eagle View Landing became available, he switched gears.
“With The Bruery and Topgolf and the energy in the hotels, and just being in the center of the valley … we feel it’s just a gem of a location, and we closed on it, and we’re looking forward to being a huge draw for the area,” he said.
While Ahlquist is developing Parts 1 through 3, Global Haven Developments, a Boise commercial and residential steel development company, will build the oncert venue, which Thornton expects will open in March 2027.
‘Dirt to done’: Eagle View nears final development milestones
Haga said Ahlquist expects to break ground the medical and office buildings sometime in 2026, with the goal of opening around May or June 2027.
“For us, it’s kind of this dirt-to-done concept where, you know, we watch these projects evolve” over decades, Haga said.
He noted that the first time he saw a site plan for Eagle View Landing was in 2005. The roughly 70-acre site once housed the popular corn maze, The Farmstead. Ahlquist’s firm, then called BVA — a partnership with Idaho Falls-based developer Ball Ventures — teamed up with the Idaho Central Credit Union to purchase the land in 2019, according to a video on Ahlquist’s website.
Dirt first moved on the site in 2019, with two large office buildings, including one anchored by the Idaho Central Credit Union, leading the charge.
At that time, an average of 142,000 vehicles traveled the segment of I-84 between the Flying Wye Interchange and Eagle Road, according to data from the Idaho Transportation Department. By 2024, it was up to more than 147,000 per day.
According to Haga, the COVID-19 pandemic and 2022 opening of Topgolf marked major turning points for the development, which will have 700,000-square-feet of office space once the new buildings are done.
“I think for all of us, it was a period of great uncertainty in the market,” Haga said. Developers had a “thesis” that high-end office space would be valuable coming out of the pandemic.
“We understood the need for the return to office, to attract and retain employees ... and so we sort of leaned into that thesis,” he said. When developers saw how well-received the office buildings and Topgolf were, he said, “That moment coming out of COVID, for us, defined the project.”
Now the development is home to Grand Canyon University, Power Engineers, Sushi Bros, hundreds of multifamily homes and more.
And while plans for new buildings are in the works at Eagle View, developers are still announcing new tenants in existing ones.
In a recent social media video, Ahlquist announced that a new med-spa, TreBella, would join the development, and the popular Overland Road restaurant The Griddle would relocate there as well.
Noting his excitement for the latter, Thornton jested, “I hope The Griddle stays open after concerts.”
